This war film has been known to have very depressing moments, such as:

* The attack on the village, accompanied by Music/HansZimmer's "Journey to the Line".
* The sequence of scenes showing the death of [[spoiler:Pvt. Witt, the vision of his "other world", and his funeral]].
--> '''Sgt. Welsh''': [[spoiler:"''Where's your spark now...''"]]
* In the book Fife comforting his dying lover Bead.
