oh this movie was fantastic. I can't remember, but didn't it win an Oscar? You picked a really good one, James. Congrats for your win.

I've seen the movie years ago. Its remarkable how you were able to fit the message in a short form. Best wishes, if this is for a contest, James.

It is 'Saving Private Ryan' and the form is Diminished Hexaverse. During the American Civil War, a Mrs Bixby lost 5 sons. Abraham Lincoln declared that if ever a family were called to fight, the surviving sibling will be saved. In recent times, during WW2, this situation happened. My poem 'The Last of the Brothers' is about the 'Niland' brothers during WW2 - James."
