Yeah I quite liked that. Even if my ears are still ringing a bit. War's so bloody loud.

It felt very much like a documentary recreation at times. I definitely didn't follow the narratives (such as they are) as much as I could've, mostly because the 'week, day, hour' conceit didn't click until embarrassingly close to the end.

What was the intention of the last shot? I read it as scepticism over British patriotism, that Churchill was twisting a humiliating defeat into a flag waving 'God save the King' moment.

Also not sure if it was just my screening but quite a lot of the dialogue was hard to make out. And given how little dialogue there was that was an issue.

e: Mark Rylance was not good.
