9/10
Love and war, beauty and death.

Warning: Spoilers
The most poignant scene in this movie is when he looks at his bride to be and she looks at him knowing their future together is never to be, they are about to die together having never really got to know each other. They will never marry nor raise children nor grow old together things that most people take for granted. This is the scene that shatters the myth of war. This is the scene that exposes war for what it is and this is the scene which shows humanity between two people when all is lost. Very few movies have this scene because in most the hero and his girl survive. The look in both their eyes is of love, loss and tragedy and so well portrayed by these actors. The battle scene and build up are but supports for this final scene. Excellent movie.
