Review of Paths of Glory (1957) by Michael M — 16 Jan 2011
Heartbreaking. Every frame is handsomely composed, it's whip smart, and Kirk Douglas barks at the top of his lungs... good stuff.
People who deride Kubrick films as lacking emotionality sometimes overlook this early gem. The movie's cast is 99% male, but to great effect for the stunning coda.
