Eddie Redmayne plays Wraysford, a British officer in WWI. I have a feeling that this is one of his best acted movies. We see his acting where he becomes a captive of a hot, passionate, illicit romance with a married, French woman. I say acting because he needs to pretend first in front of the woman that he is not interested, and then later in front of the husband that there is nothing going on. In entirely different scenes, Redmayne experiences the horrors of WWI, which was incredibly deadly and from what I have read, incredibly senseless and stupid (lesson number one). The second lesson, comes from the lips of Firebrace, a subordinate of Wraysford, and comes in the last few minutes of this two part Masterpiece Classic, 165 minute movie.
