movie vs book
Stanley Kubrick, 1957
The film begins with a voiceover describing the trench warfare situation of World War I up to 1916. Mireau leaves the detailed planning of the attack to Colonel Dax of the 701st regiment, despite Dax’s protests that the only result of the attack will be to weaken the French Army with heavy losses for no benefit.
