The Soldier's Return
60Watch it awake.
A soldier comes home, the waiting was the story, and that is enough.
The review
Williamson brings a soldier home to his family in 1902. A house can watch it. The waiting is the story. The uniform is the absence ending. I didn't need a fight added, and none was handed to me.
Here a household is a life. He was gone. He returns. I won't invent the time between or a greeting nobody wrote down. The uniform means the absence is over. I was tired, and the quiet matched. If we watch it, we can talk about the waiting and leave it there. Stretching it would only add things the reel doesn't have.

Live Historic number 60. Yours can differ.
The glance
Piety and Courage are the thin ones.
Can conscience actually stop someone, or is reverence only in the shot so it can be mocked?
This phone is set for a grown person, just me. Change the ages.
Consider this
The Iron Giant
73 instead of 60
The Iron Giant is still a drama film, and it scores 73 instead of 60. What you gain is courage: He stays up so the town can live.
