My Take
A man who refused to touch a weapon became one of the most important people on one of the most brutal battlefields of World War II. Not despite his pacifism but because of it. Based on a true story, and you feel that weight the entire time. Sometimes the most useful person in the room is the one who decided what they stood for and never moved. Fun fact : the movie is actually a toned down version of the accomplishements of Doss. In the movie making Andrew Garfield needed a cable to help pulling the wounded soldiers (he asked it after struggling to move THE FIRST GUY). Doss however WAS SHOT IN THE LUNG before the night. HE DID IT ALL WITH ONE FUNCTIONNING LUNG!!!!
