Based on the acclaimed WWI memoir, this powerful romance has become the classic testimony of that war from a woman’s point of view. After falling in love with a young soldier (Kit Harington, Game of Thrones), tenacious proto-feminist Vera Brittain (Alicia Vikander) sacrifices her chance at Oxford to enlist as a nurse. Her searing journey from innocence to the edge of despair and back illustrates how one makes sense of the darkest times. “A heart-wrenching sucker punch of emotion” (The Guardian). D: James Kent, UK, 2015, 129m
