Midnight Clear, A (Blu-ray)

"The cast is first-rate ..." – Roger Ebert With an amazing all-star ensemble led by Ethan Hawke, Gary Sinise, Kevin Dillon and Peter Berg, A Midnight Clear is a classic war movie that has won critical acclaim and a cult following. As the end of World War II approaches, a group of American soldiers are assigned to watch activity amidst the stark snow-covered landscape of the French-German border and soon discover a battle-weary enemy as reluctant to fight as they are. With common ground established, the German platoon offer to be "captured" and a phony battle is staged to save honor. However, a tragic misunderstanding has devastating consequences in this powerful depiction of war's insanity.
