05/29/2012 blah, blah, blah... beauty is in the eye of the beholder! I own the movie 1918 in VHS and 2 copies of DVD-- I thought it is wonderful and I watch it over and over again... the sets, the dialogue, the plot, the characters and their portrayal take me back to a bleak time in a small Texas town-- every town in the midst of plague, patriotism and struggle. I just love it-- all of it! --I just wish I could contact the actors and thank them. --Mickey Danyluk a town historian in Windsor Locks, CT See more 04/02/2012 A quiet film about a family facing war, death, and its influences on their relationships.
