Honestly first time I saw the movie, soon as they got into the empty german trench, all I could think was "booby traps". Germany LOVED those in both world wars any time they abandoned areas and really perfected the art, I read how in WWII they'd often rig booby traps to slightly crooked paintings set to go off when you straightened them, and did it in the nicest house in town figuring the officers would take it over, and while an enlisted man wouldn't care, an officer wouldn't stand for a crooked painting, thus ensuring the most valuable target was killed by the bomb.

2:48 I love the detail of Schofield noticing the German children’s photo, knowing what we know about his character with a family as well… The Germans are depicted as this terrifying force with more advanced equipment, cold and ruthless, but this moment shows our protagonist realizing these men are not so different from them…

Also in the wooden post before the picture someone carved "Elsa ❤" into it.

One of the subtle things I like is how the German trench is so clearly better designed. Neat lines, concrete and sandbags instead of dirt and wood, drainage to carry away water, literal signs pointing directions 😂

This movie needs a sequel that takes place on the eastern front.

that bomb explosion in the theaters gave me goosebumps

I asked a Russian what he remembered most about the Germans when they invaded in WW2. He said they were always building things.

The difference between the british trench and the german trench is so well displayed here. I remember as a kid learning that when Newfoundland made the charge at Beaumont - Hamel, they were weighed down by a ton of equipment because they were told the german trenches needed to be made "livable". As if the Germans were wild animals or something, and this was not the case

Very accurate depictions of the difference in the German trenches and English…. Germany KNEW it was going to be the long drawn out nastiness this was and was better prepared

The German trenches were nearly always better. Well-drained, lined with stone or even concrete. Because once their attempt to conquer France was defeated in 1914 and it became attrition / trench warfare, they retreated a bit to higher, more defensible ground, whereas the French were ideologically driven to not accept the Germans occupying an inch of French soil, so the French would dig their trenches as close as possible to the Germans, even when that meant low, soggy, inferior ground -- and both they and the British suffered horribly for it.

The Germans withdrew from those trenches and formed a new front called the Hindenburg line a few kilometers back. They knew the trench would be empty because the general told them, and they believed it once they saw that nobody was in it.

When he soaked his hand in water from a canteen...did it ever occur to the army to give the troops canteens of H2O2 as well as water, in case of an injury like that?

@spaman7716

Three reasons: 1, The formula of hydrogen peroxide, H2O2, was only really solidified about two decades prior by Melikishvili, and its use outside of major cities and chemistry labs was very rare until later in the 20th century. 2, Having an extra canteen for hydrogen peroxide in the unlikely chance that your soldier gets a cut and not shot or blown up, would have required a massive investment into pharmaceutical industries, something the British were not able to afford at that time (Germany could with BASF or Bayer, who had been operating for at least half a century prior to the war). On top of that, you would also have to produce a container for it, something akin to a canteen, but something that did not impact production during war time (unlikely and expensive). Three, the average Tommy or German, for that matter, would have discarded them soon after getting to the front, or left them at a field hospital where it would have been more useful. Keep in mind that most of these boys were from either factory workers or the country, they had no idea about germs outside of basic survival instinct and basic cleanliness. Any piece of equipment that you could get rid of, you typically would. Especially considering a full canteen would likely have weighed a couple of pounds, which may not seem like much, until you take into account the amount of gear they were already carrying.
