its amazing how the film already gave us clues that scho already have daughters - from the picture of two little girls scho took time to look at in one of the beds in the german bunkers, the ragged doll in the floor of the abandoned house, then the interaction he had with the baby girl which showed his fatherhood... finally leading us to the moment where he looked at his own photograph of his 2 daughters. JUST BRILLIANT!

All 5 of them can be very proud of what they achieved making that film. It was phenomenal.

George MacKay's hindsight is truely remarkable. To be able to retrospectively examine and exhaust every minute detail around which the character he plays was constructed is a breath of fresh air. Acting is, in essence, a talent. Meta-acting is breaching the boundary between the role and the idea of the role played. From what I've seen, MacKay constantly engages in meta-acting. In simpler terms, he pays a whole lot of attention to the intricacies of filming, having in mind the inextricable relation between cinematography and the plot. His often engagement in filming details is not only a sign of a promising future in which directing and producing is possible for the young man, but is also a proof of his unequivocal understanding of the importance of the process of building a character, which should definitely come before undertaking and performing the role. Hats off to him. Would love to have a conversation with him one day.

I keep listening the 1917 soundtrack...over and over. I walked out of that film with tears in my eyes. I'm going a second time.

George Mackay has been the biggest Oscar snub for the entire decade!

The scene where Schofield is running from gunshots and the only light we get is in intervals from flares is a cinematic masterpiece. The whole movie was a cinematic masterpiece.

Yes! When George talks about them never talking about how they felt... I felt that when Blake died and Schofield had to get on the back of the mog, and the lads were spinning yarns, and there was that one guy who was the storytell/joker, just like Blake.

I can say this film can be watched a dozen more times to suck the cinematic fucking juice out of this goddamn gem.

Mackay has some really good insights. I saw Mendes reacting as if to say that was a good point. Like George said that he could start a scene and he want from pretending to existing. That is what the really soon actors do, is to exist as their character. Like Bobby Duval “become” “Gus.” I think of Spencer Tracy as “Manuel”

Kristy is absolutely gorgeous ❤️
