What transpires here is under-appreciated by those who have never experienced war
I just watched this film twice within the past two weeks and find the drama very compelling. Having participated in war, I understand full well how banal and boring life during wartime becomes. You are controlled by events and decisions beyond your control. Both the soldier in war, and the person very close to him, are deeply affected. What is portray here is very gripping and real. Ms. Loren's role is like that of the "furniture girl" in Soylent Green. Both women are not sluts - they have feelings too! They are doing what they have to do to survive in desperate times. When the movie ends, your brief and intimate contact with war itself is over. And then, you return to your normal life. If the movie is not sufficiently dramatic for you, then I suggest an enlistment in the Marine Corps or similar combat unit.score 10/10
