Synopsis The year is 1913. War with Germany is imminent. Rudyard Kipling(David Haig), the British Empire's greatest apologist, is at the peak of his literary fame. This movie explores the nature of a man who loses his balance when devotion to family and country clash. World War I breaks out, and Kipling's son, Jack (Daniel Radcliffe), is determined to fight, but the Army and the Navy both reject him because of his extremely poor eyesight. Undaunted, Kipling uses his influence to land Jack a commission in the Irish Guards, sparking off a bitter family conflict. Jack goes to war and is reported missing, believed wounded, in his first action. The Kipling family live in vain hope for two years, before finally learning of Jack's death. The effect on Kipling is profound and irrevocable, as he struggles to confront his appalling sense of guilt and loss.

I plan on watching it one more time this weekend before I have to send it back to Netflix. David Copperfield is next on my list. I may even try to find MBJ on DVD. __________________ "Our lives shouldn't be measured by how much money we make or by how well known we are, but by how much fulfillment we can find in our everyday existence." ~ Ewan McGregor | |||
