In Stanley Kubrick's "Paths of Glory" war is seen in terms of power. This mesmerizing, urgent film about a true episode in the First World War combines the idea that class differences are more important than national differences with CANNON-FODDER theory of war, the theory that the soldiers are just pawns in the hands of generals who play at war is if it was a chess game. The result of this wonderful film, the emergence of one of the great talents in contemporary cinema, the commander whose greatest work is yet to come.

I Stanley Kubrick's "Paths of Glory" krig ses i termer av makt. Detta mesmerizing, brådskande film om en sann episod i första världskriget kombinerar tanken att klass skillnaderna är viktigare än nationella skillnader med KANONMAT teorier om krig, teorin att soldaterna är bara brickor i händerna på generaler som spelar i krig är om det var ett schackspel. Resultatet av denna fantastiska film har framväxten av en av de stora talanger i dagens film, befälhavaren vars största arbete har ännu inte kommit.

A group of young soldiers is brought in as a relief for the fight-tired sea unities. The tiresome fight for a key-opposed airfield, the control of a mile radius 1000 permits, brings the men of the army gun society C for Charlie by the hell. The frights of the war form the soldiers in a clinging group, her feelings develop in bonds of the love and even family. The reasons for this war come farther because the world becomes smaller for the men and smaller, until her fights are for the bare survival and the life of the other men with them.

Die Schrecken des Krieges bilden die Soldaten in eine eng anliegende Gruppe, ihre Gefühle entwickeln sich in Obligationen der Liebe und sogar Familie. Die Gründe für diesen Krieg kommen weiter weg, weil die Welt für die Männer kleiner und kleiner wird, bis ihr Kämpfen für das bloße Überleben und das Leben der anderen Männer mit ihnen ist.
