The first few minutes of Christopher Nolan’s Dunkirk are devoted to introducing the exhaustion and desperation that the Allied soldiers had to fight through during this historical event. There really isn’t any gory or ultra violent imagery like Saving Private Ryan’s Omaha Beach scene, but it’s more about the psychological trauma that these people are experiencing. Perhaps this is the main reason why Christopher Nolan said “I don’t really consider it a war movie. It’s a suspense thriller.” The fear and desperation to get out is what’s contagious about the film. But Dunkirk never shies away from showing us the reality of war, which is that people die and often not in the heroic way Hollywood may have led some of us to believe. This is one of the main lessons the film teaches us, but let’s explore exactly what makes Dunkirk different and what we can learn about war and most importantly, about ourselves.
