Review of Beaufort (2007) by Mike M — 18 Feb 2008
An atmospheric drama about a military hotspot haunted by several decades' worth of ghosts, and the tenacious soldiers left behind, trying to avoid being picked off one by one... In truth, Cedar's film winds down after an hour, and the cycle of violence it describes can be summed up in two lines of a song one soldier sings ("Father cries over son/Son cries over father"), but there are scenes you won't have seen in any other combat drama: witness the grunts being confronted with the double-edged sword of increased bunk space as yet another of their colleagues passes away.
