A breath of fresh air in a movie landscape, where unique storylines and morality is rare. As someone that has obviously seen a ton of movies, I was not necessarily prepared for the ending and how unique it was compared to many movies in today’s age that just copy and paste what others do.
This movie shows that there can be optimism when people feel like the entire world is going to be demolished as many dead during World War II. I say that because this movie came out in 1942 and not after World War II. 
Not many movies can have unique writing, editing, and an amazing storyline in one show.
Today, movies are trying to grab your attention every single second. This movie chose an alternative routes where you have to actually have patience throughout certain scenes.
As someone that is a part of Generation Z, I can say that this movie definitely feels like a breath of fresh air compared to many movies that have been coming out in today’s age.
