In Love and War
20 September 2006
Warning: Spoilers
From Lord Sir Richard Attenborough directing, I thought Cry Freedom was better, but this is okay in some ways. It tells the story of Ernest 'Ernie' Hemingway (Chris O'Donnell), the young soldier who volunteered to fight in the front line during World War I. Unfortunately, while rescuing another soldier, and escaping, he was shot in the leg, and his friend who see later was covered in injury. Agnes 'Aggie/Ag' Von Kurowsky (Sandra Bullock) is the nurse who tries to help him without having his leg cutoff, because of gangrene. During treatment and time in the hospital Ernie forms a close friendship with Aggie, and soon it becomes a question as to whether they are in love. They get the chance to get together before Ernie leaves for a mission, but after, she dumps him for another man. Later, she realises it was a mistake, but Ernie can't forgive her, and they never see each other again after a final chat. Okay!
