George MacKay's character, Schofield, approaches Joseph and reveals the heartbreaking news of his brother's death, presenting him with Tom's rings and dog tag as a final gesture of respect and remembrance. Richard Madden's character, Joseph, is visibly shaken and deeply upset by the loss of his brother, but he expresses his gratitude to Schofield for his tireless efforts and the sacrifices he made to deliver the message and save countless lives. In a poignant moment, Schofield requests permission to write to their mother about Tom's heroics, a request that Joseph graciously agrees to, acknowledging the importance of honoring his brother's memory. Emotionally drained and physically exhausted, George MacKay's character, Schofield, seeks solace under a nearby tree, finding a moment of respite as he looks at cherished photographs of his wife and children, reminding him of the love and life he fights to protect. 1917, featuring powerful performances by George MacKay, Richard Madden, and Dean-Charles Chapman, will be available for streaming on Netflix starting June 1, 2024, allowing viewers to experience this poignant and unforgettable story of courage, sacrifice, and the unbreakable bonds of brotherhood forged in the crucible of war.

What’s the 1917 movie about?
On April 6, 1917, the Germans pretended to abandon their trenches, but in reality, they wanted to surprise the British by waiting for them on the Hindenburg Line. The British are completely oblivious to this, except for General Erinmore (Colin Firth from The King’s Speech and Mamma Mia!). He wants to warn Colonel McKenzie (Benedict Cumberbatch from Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Strange). The offensive must not be launched, or 1,600 men will die. The two soldiers Will Schofield (George MacKay from Captain Fantastic) and Tom Blake (Dean-Charles Chapman from Game of Thrones) are appointed to go and deliver the news. Their journey was not a pleasant one, as they had to cross a no-man's land full of corpses and rats. On the way, Blake is mortally wounded by a German pilot. Schofield had to continue his mission and go to Ecoust to warn the Devon Division. He was escorted by Captain Smith (Mark Strong) but had to finish his journey alone. Passing through the bombs, he alerts McKenzie before it is too late. The Colonel recalls his troops. In the infirmary, Schofield finds Joseph Blake (Richard Madden) to inform him of the death of his brother.

Richard Madden’s performance here was subtle, yet hard-hitting.
It’s heartbreaking that he must swallow his pain on the spot and can’t spare any time to mourn his dead brother; but you can see how he is devastated… brilliant acting.
This scene deserves and Oscar for its own.
Why did I read this in a Patrick Bateman voice?
the film was pants and Madden was lightweight . The whole film was a woke Horrendous depiction of ww1 . You could walk for 50 miles in all directions and not see a blade of grass. . wounded would be left in no-mans land and their mates could hear them screaming at night in the mud and the rain because they were being eaten alive by Rats the size of cats. Within 2 days they would go to find there bodies and they had already bevcome skeletons. Fields of decaying bodies that you then had to crawl across to get to the attack trenchs. This sort of film is a travesty and cheapens what really happened to the brave men who suffered.Read " The Somme into the breach" by Hugh Sebag-Montefiore
you will then be embarrassed by thinking this film is any good at depicting the subject.
@@Metal00m That subtle off-white...with that font... Where's my axe?
The way he reacts at 1:31 when Schofield asks to write his mom, thinking about how she's going to feel got him to crack at holding in his tears and it gets me every time.
he probably thought:
"Dis biach tryna hit on meh ma?"
His lower lip...
Bob Ross?
I dont know if it was deliberate, but Blake asked Schofield to tell his Mum that he wasnt scared, but when he asked Lt Blake, he says, "tell her he wasn't alone", which might be more important for her to hear.
The fact he doesn't have to break the news to her is a blessing too. Imagine feeling the crushing weight of having to tell your mother her second son has died. Will lifted that weight, he's a homie.
This movie was a truly unique experience in the theater. The tension throughout and then the relief/pain of the ending. A remarkable movie.
Easily on my top theatrical experiences list
I agree. It is stunning
How did I missed this ..
Man, imagine being booked for one scene and delivering that. Fucking legend.
If I was on set of 1917, I’d be crying my eyes out but the war made me stronger this past year and now preparing for Remembrance again
And that was his first take
@@PhantomLantern2814 really?......???
Technically the whole movie is one scene soo
@@janpokos4086 that doesn't mean it's all done in one take
Sometimes, I think we can all be a little guilty of hyperbole or overreacting but genuinely, 1917 is one of the finest pieces of media ever created. The setting, the locations, the performances (from those on and benhid the camera), the one take element adding so much claustrophobia, the haunting macabre sadness and the ticking clock creates a visceral masterpiece.
I agree. This is one of my favorite films. It was a true privilege seeing this in theater.
@@blurrcs15 I wish I’d had that opportunity. Although saying that, maybe it’s best I wasnt in public as I was crying like a baby at this scene 😂
@@blurrcs15 I deeply regret not going to watch this on theatre. Even more, where I live it’s almost impossible for the cinemas to show “not current” movies. There are some small ones that sometimes do, but never saw them showing this masterpiece, only independent cinema productions. Man, I’ll pay three times the price of a ticket to watch this at a cinema…
This really was one of the best movies I’ve seen in my life.
It's a beautifully shot understated film made all the more quality by all the supporting actors being the cream of British equity.
I will never forget the experience i had watching this movie in a theatre
Same.
I literally staggered out of the theatre, looking straight ahead and walking too fast and jerkily, with my chest hurting as if I'd been sprinting. I hadn't realised until then how much tension I had been holding in my muscles throughout the film, and it left me with my thoughts hyper-stimulated but physically exhausted in a way that sitting in a movie theatre never has before.
The thing that really hit me from this scene is the focus on the handshake; it's the one bit of thanks Will gets for everything he did, after everyone (including Blake at first) just wants him to go away, and all he can look forward to in the future is another chance to suffer and die to do his duty. And yet, the focus on it leaves you in no doubt that it's infinitely more meaningful than a medal.
In the ‘cinema’ *
Was it feeling boredom or disgust? The feel of stepping in poo bare feeted for 2 hours maybe?
@@Cl0ckcl0ck not even close
@@mzytryck
I held my grief In but by the ending, everyone helped me out because i was losing it
I love how towards the end of the movie, Benedict Cumberbatch and Richard Madden pops out of nowhere, delivering one scene, and that's it. Great movies
Richard Madden only had a few minutes, but he made the most out of them. The way he’s able to convey Lt. Blake’s grief and his struggle to not break down in front of his men is brilliant.
"I'm glad you were with him" really gets me. One of those things you say when trying to be genuine in a difficult situation, when there's not much positive to cling on to. A word of gratitude to a good man.
This film is a masterpiece. I am an army veteran and I sat for 20 minutes in the theatre when it was over and wept.
The expression change from 'oh my brother's here!' to the realisation of his brother's death was really a top notch acting.
Crazy thing they prolly just sent him back to his unit or put him with another one to go right back at it
It must have been so rough back then. Couldn’t imagine how bad it was.
@@Mectrex They were made of stronger stuff back then
@@rowanmelton7643 they weren’t, really. We may live in times of unprecedented peace. Yet, if a world war were to emerge, there’s no doubt we’ll see men like these with similar stories appearing. Today’s generation may seem weak, but there’s strong men and women who, if put in a similar situation as the men who fought 100 years ago, would do extraordinary things
@@finnbazz6315 I don't know if today's world is more peaceful to be honest. I mean we don't have a worldwide war but are we really at peace? People are getting mad at each other these days for literally anything. Everyone is getting stupider. It's like abnormality is normal now. In my opinion, except the two Great Wars, today's modern world is pretty much the worst time to live in. And that's coming from someone born in 2003, so you can take my word for it.
@@mahrizhossain4308 so you’re 18? You don’t know how lucky and stupid you are. Get a grip and get off your phone.
The way he lit up when Will told him he was sent with Tom is so heartbreaking.
This is one of the most powerful and emotional scenes I've ever seen in a movie. I've never come across a scene that seemed so real when it came to telling someone about the death of a loved one.
I couldn’t imagine how horribly my heart would sink hearing that my brother was dead. God damn, war sucks.
I have two brothers. Neither of them give a damn about me and they will not be welcome at my funeral.
The acting by Richard Madden is stellar.
You can't even see the transition from earnest excitement to see his brother to realization that he'll never see him again. That's incredible. That kind of fade between emotions requires such insane control.
He was told to piss off from the commander but got a true genuine handshake and a thank you from the brother 😢
This acting powerful
One line "Tom's here! Where is he?"
Gut wrenching
This movie was a true piece of art. What an incredible film.
How in the world did this movie not win the Best Picture Oscar??? Criminal.
Fuck Parasite
1917 is the true winner
What was so poignant in this movie was Will constantly had to focus and keep his emotions in check to survive . At the end to sit and close one’s eyes in peace was so emotional.
I love how even though he holds together well, the acting is so good you can tell how broken The character is after hearing the news and how much he wants to break down in grief.
Heartbreaking to think of how many men found out that their brothers died this way.
Will saying "he saved my life" was what allowed him to really accept it I think. You can see it on his face, from sadness to pride in his brother.
Loved being an extra on this film, such a wonderful experience.
Which scenes were you in?
Thanks for making the movie amazing bro. I’m glad you done it
This movie was literally a spectacle. Like it felt like a very expensive play. It was very well produced.
this makes me cry :(
You are not alone
It hurt as I grieved for Prince Philip because I wasn’t coping with his loss at all. Looking at my pictures of him that my Nanny printed out for me hurts and I still think he’s here when he’s not. I miss you our beloved Prince Philip 😔
That pause and then head movement that Richard Madden makes after Schofield says "I'd like to write to your mother" is so powerful. It's like Joseph has just been lost in the shock of his own pain at the news, and when he hears "your mother" he thinks of her and how she'll feel and says to himself "Oh no...MOM..."
Keep thinking of Game of thrones characters where Tom and lieutenant Blake are arch-nemesis
Is that othrr guy in GOT?
@@malhar073 yeah the other MC in the duo played Tommen Baratheon (Joffrey's younger brother)
@@phrophetsamgames omggggg dude I forgot about that
Watch him in "the bodyguard".
Richard Madden’s acting is some of the best I’ve seen here
Being the 2nd to youngest in my family and having 3 older brothers two older sisters and one younger brother nothing in the world would hurt more than losing my little brother this is the only time I actually cried in the theater wow top 3 war movies of all time
ikaris looks so freaking sad here, phenomenal acting
john newman did an incredible job scoring this movie. I can't remember if this is too accurate, but i think they initially wanted to do this movie with minimal scoring if any at all. The music is just so pulling, it's going down as one of my favorites of all time.
The Night Window
Come Back to Us (played here)
Gehenna
Croiselles Wood
It takes you completely and each note and chord literally moves your veins and muscles and spirit
Love this actor when Blake was holding onto his brother's dog tags throughout that whole scene, pure example of shock and numbness from it all. It was so clear that he was still processing what information he gotten, so much so that he was even going blank just knowing his brother he grew up with is dead.
How poetic that it ends under a tree right where it all started
This was Richard Madden’s first and only take of the scene
Blake was probably too stressed out having half of his men are dead or wounded, the fact that he somehow managed to smile a little thinking that his brother might be around is just sad
This scene alone touched hearts.
short scene that lands like a hammer. Richard madden is an insanely talented actor
the handshake has me choked up every single time
this hurts if you have younger siblings, or any sibling in general but especially younger.
edit: off topic but notice how Schofield says that Lt. Blake's brother's death was "very quick." Anybody who watched the movie would know that it's not true and that he was suffering and scared for a while, but Schofield spares Lt. Blake that added pain.
Being English, seeing movies like this that portray the First World War so realistically and really show what horrors these young lads experienced is truly moving. It’s impossible to imagine that young men, sometimes even boys, exactly like us had to go through this.
The old men play chess. The young men are the pawns.
@@SpeccyMan Especially true of that war. The King, the Kaiser and the Czar were all cousins.
Acceptances at it finest, That handshake gave Will peace.
Amazing acting. The way his expression changes is really good
" It was very quick... "
Yes, my eyes got teary really quick.
In last part of this scene I like how main character sits close to tree like at beginning of movie. It may be info, that during this war there was so many stories simmilar like this
Saw this in the theater three times, a great film.
I love how real this feels. I wasn’t there but I couldn’t imagine it any other way. I think the only word I could use to describe these depictions is shockingly inhuman and human at the same time. The fact that someone like Tom was killed, a fun likable caring man who was butchered by the person he was helping. I think it truly does paint an honest picture of what happened in these times. Good people where killed on both sides and we lost much of our humanity in the war. But some shades do show. Moments like in Fury with the German saving the American soldier under the tank. By that time in the war most armies where just boys or book workers. The naturally real hard men had died years earlier. Those men needed to become killers and for some of them it just didn’t fit.
It was not quick. Took over a minute. But you don't want relatives to know that
"He was a good MAN"
"He saved my life"
True statements. But they are also facts a brother can be proud of.
One of the best handshakes in film.
Del Spooner and Sonny.
T-800 and Sarah Connor.
Malcolm and Caesar.
His face when it dawned on him. Goddamn that was incredible acting man.
He finishes his professional journey with a "fuck off, lance corporal" and his personal journey with a "thank you, Will".
Woman : I don't believe man didn't cry for Titanic!
Man :
Men are brave
They naver cry
"It was very quick." A mercy.
"I'm glad you were with him"
A tree and the earth always brings us home.
🥹 Oy-yoyy! @2.09.. That SNIFF from Joe.. 😭 how does one actor is able to keep-inside.. at the most perfect scene..
I honestly don't like dramatic or sad moments in movies because imo of how unbelievable the emotions are, but here... that was some amazing acting that touched my heart. It must be indeed painful to lose someone when u know his time shouldn't have come so soon.
I never ready of the ending...
they said it has terrible story but I couldn't forget how hard it is to left by ur best buddy, brother and son in that time.
One of the few movies that made me cry and remind me of comrades
I was able to watch this at cinema. This scene in particular really moved me
Richard Madden's Acting is so Good in this Scene.
come back to us music after this, fantastic. thomas newman great
Will walking to the tree was the most poignant scene in a very well made movie. What wounds those men carried for the rest of their lives. And to be treated so badly after the war was a crime against humanity, the cherry on the parfait in a war full of inhumanity.
The tree in the field is a classic scene from the end of battles
The 8th? You must know my brother. Jon Snow.
An extremely impressive performance from both actors.
Goddamn these men would be ashamed to see Great Britain today.
What do you mean
They would be most ashamed of you.
@here it comes the mighty duster! it's true tho
Ruined by their grandchildren lol
Indeed. A terrible terrible tragedy.
So powerful. This scene.
It makes one weep.
Truly
would love to see him in eternals
One thing that is lost in most war movies is the representation that the same or similar circumstances befell the "enemy." The only interactions which the protagonists and the British had in this movie with their enemy, the enemy was seen and interpreted as being bloodthirsty, sub-human, merciless, and conniving... inhuman. In reality, the one's dying were largely of the same heritage on either side, and cut from the same cloth. The only one's that benefited from these internecine wars were one's uninvolved in an allegiance to any side alone, but simply participating in "aiding" (backdooring) all sides, and only devoted to undermining and subjugating (or quasi enslaving) the combatants that populate the pages of our history books.
The King in the North !
Amazing acting. Just a pure masterpiece
This movie was epic. Tho i kinda cracked up when he bumped into the soldiers leaving the trenches. I was thinking the guys he bumped into were like "if you get an emmy, you owe me a beer"
Robb and Tommen, who would've thought...
Unnecessary fun fact: The tree that Schofield went to rest was used as a place for extras to pee on since the set bathroom was so far away. Source: comes from an extra who revealed this
I find it crazy that Blake would think that his brother would be ok and not have died.
1:32 when your friend's mom brought you cookies once
Wow, lame joke.
This movie was absolutely incredible
He was awesome in the Bodyguard. Hope there’s a season 2.
Found out I had two Great Uncles on my dad's side and one relative on my mom's side all fought in this war for America
This was where Ikaris was before the events of Eternals
And before that he was the king of the north
I didn't know how Harry Potter turned into this war movie
Who would have known that a Stark and a Lannister would be brothers😂😂😂
Man Richard Madden has a thing for his brothers dying...
hundreds of thousands of lives, hundreds of thousands of mothers, siblings, fathers and all the suffering for what ? for a second suffering . poor guys and their families die for nothing . peace is all the matter in this world.
The closest to the reality of war we will see in this generation.
Jesus, the kind of breed of a man Joseph was written to be. The Leader of his group, attending their needs, and while receiving the most devastated news, still holds it and sends for the other soldier to be taken cared of, all this while dying on the inside.
Jesus!!!
The King in the North has had it rough…
I love how all the important, high ranking characters in this movie are played by well known actors, while the two mains are lesser known.
As I remember the director did that on purpose..
Director didn’t wanna take away from the story, so he kept it with lesser known actors
It is a wonderfull detail that reflects how - in the after times - only the high ranking militarys are known and remembered but those who sufferd most are neglected and forgotten. 1917 ist not only a film that shows something, it is a film that makes us see.
Tom was king tommen on got
@@hendriklobe577 I didn't think about it that way. Thanks.
It broke my heart, really, when Joseph walks forward eagerly with "You must know my brother"
The dawning realization on his face
@@prollins6443 yes. That subtle change in his face as realization sinks in. Absolutely gutting.
This movie mad me emotional as hell man.
The face of try not to burst into crying is just......heartbreaking.
I like how British the scene felt. When you look at American war films the talk of death feels different.
American films have been dieing on the inside.
trying not to laugh at this nonsense more like,
@@davidhawes7959 whew lad you sure are edgy
@@DocLacrosse and that means what in the Queens?
Notice how Blake asks for Schofield's name, but the camera doesn't completely tilt up from the rings and dogtag before Schofield answers. Then, once it has completely tilted up, Blake apologizes and asks again, now ready to pay attention to Schofield's answer. The cinematography is representative of Blake's attention.
Shout out to Roger Deakins and all assistant cinematographers (as well as anyone who had a hand in that decision).
damn I didn’t notice, thanks dude
Deakins is in the pantheon of legends like Nykvist, Hall, Lubezki, Delbonnel, Kaminski and Willis 😀

@@pop-up5982 They are enjoying it, praising it even.

This scene really got to me. My grandfather was killed in this war, fighting for the British, in this same year 1917. I have a photo of my grandmother and him on their wedding day, both young and beautiful, unaware of what was to come. When I was a young boy in the 1960s she told me once that she still missed him.
My grandfather was born in October 1917 and was in the Second World War and survived the hell out there. He died 20 years ago from cancer aged 71
God bless her
What gets to me about this scene is about my grandfather surviving the Korean War. His friend saved his life in the middle of combat... anyways, all I can say is Chuck is a good dude because if it wasn't for him my grandpa probably never would have come home and my mom never would have been born. Funny how one guys selfless act can change the course of a family's life for generations
Thank you for sharing your story.
Thoughts
“It was very quick”
A lie but a necessary one…
Yet still heartbreaking as we know he died slowly and in pain…
Such a godly movie
Very quick may be excessive, but it definitely was quick. Bled out in minutes. Consider how some wounded were left behind on the battlefield and bled out for many hours.
Everyone died from a bullet through the heart according to their friends.
I think that was very quick to say it.
I always thought he meant very quick by it happened so quick I couldn’t save him.
@@redlizerad8268 it was more to ease the pain of the brother. It would be easier to know that your little brother went out without a slow and agonizing pain.
as an older brother, this killed me inside
I would never know how I would feel if I lost my brother. He can be a Bastard sometimes but he is still my Brother
And older brother here, as well. Bloody hell do i wish i never have to face something like this.
Brothers can be bastards but mark my words they'll be the best bastards you ever know if you make sure to play your cards right.
A while back I was very depressed and nearly killed myself, when I got outta the hospital it very emotional seeing my family yet I never cried. When I finally saw my older brother I burst into tears at the thought of what I almost did to him.
yea the best bastards
older brother here too
Younger brother here, We grew up not used to tell we love each other, but hell do I love my brothers.

@@fieldmarshalbaltimore1329 Well, there are a LOT of more or less hidden cuts in the movie. But making it all seem so seamless is definitely art.
I think the OP is referencing that Richard Madden did this scene in one take.
@@Andrewdb486 Did he? I'm sure they had several takes, they do that every time. What ended up in the actual film might have been the first take, nonetheless.
@@marcwittkowski5146 People have argued with me so many times whenever I tell them this
The hardest part was the LT trying to maintain his whole Victorian "alright lads keep a stiff upper lip" fascade
sometimes that's what it takes to be able to deal with extreme situations. The virtue of the mean is closer to the stiff upper lip than being emotional, especially in an environment like that.
@@AjaxNixon what we need is also greif tending- not saying there shouldnt be times when we have to stay focused without letting our deeper emotions out, but ptsd is literally, shock trauma and trapped emotion.
