Will (George MacKay) makes a desperate run through the battlefield in order to deliver an order to Colonel Mackenzie to stop off the attack.
1917 (2019): Sam Mendes, the Oscar®-winning director of Spectre and American Beauty, brings his singular vision to this World War I epic. At the height of the First World War, two young British soldiers, Schofield (Captain Fantastic's George MacKay) and Blake (Game of Thrones' Dean-Charles Chapman), are given a seemingly impossible mission. In a race against time, they must cross enemy territory and deliver a message that will stop a deadly attack on hundreds of soldiers-Blake's own brother among them.

I like to think he got knocked down and decided it was a good enough hit to get knocked out, and so he just decided to play unconscious. In regards to the actor, he was probably an extra, plus this was a one-shot scene where the messenger wasn't supposed to run into anyone. He probably decided just not moving was the best way to not mess up the scene.

@johnnk3256 10 ай бұрын

Will wasn't meant to run into anyone when running. The extra didn't know what to do, so he just stayed down. And since the shot could only be done once, they kept it in the movie.

Couple of fun facts about this epic scene. 1. At 3:19 you see 3 random solders in full uniform ahead of the advancing lines with no guns. They were the camera operators that were following schofiled through the trench and then climbed the trench and mounted the camera onto a vehicle for the running scene. They couldn’t get out of shot quickly enough so Sam Mendez decided to blend them in to the advancing soldiers as soldiers themselves. 2. When Schofield collided with the running soldiers this was accidental and wasn’t meant to happen. But as the scene was filmed in one take they couldn’t stop rolling so he just had to get up and keep running.

@ewanc1 9 ай бұрын

Despite that we know it was a trap and that the Germans were counting on the British attacking, you could be forgiven for thinking the attack was going well and that the first wave had been somewhat successful in that the left flank had reached the German line and had fired signal flares which they were only supposed to do once they had taken their objective i.e. the German trenches. The Colonel thought he had the Germans on the run and wanted to make a decisive breakthrough which the Allies had spent the last 3 years trying and failing to do at great cost, something that the Colonel most likely witnessed and hated seeing. You can see why the Colonel was reluctant to stop the attack now that he had the opportunity (his belief that the Germans were on the run) and the flexibility (with the phone lines being down and no-one to countermand his orders) to attack and hopefully make a breakthrough and maybe, just maybe, end the war.

@rstein926 2 ай бұрын

The Germans moving to the Hindenburg line wasn't really a trap. The Germans moved there in an attempt to prevent further losses, having suffered too many losses at Verdun & the Somme. However it didn't obviously mean the British and French didn't fight them there. And even if they did win, the war wouldn't end automatically. It is far more complicated than that. When a side loses they would have to come to an agreement with the victors on signing the treaty's which would take time. Germany very nearly won in 1918 with the Spring Offensive as they made their biggest move since 1914 until the Americans intervened and Germany being outnumbered and no match against the 'freshness' of the Americans who were fitter due to arriving in 1917 knew they lost and had no alternative but to surrender, thus causing the birth of the infamous Treaty of Versailles in November 1918 as terms took months to be official.

It’s crazy to think Jack Marston had to go through this solely because he just had to choose revenge and kill Edgar Ross. If he hadn’t done that the government would not of declared him a suspect in Edgar Ross’s death, forcing him to go on the run, falling in with a small gang of outlaws. Few years he got captured and had to take a deal with Archer Fordham to fight in World War I as his sentence as opposed to sitting in prison for life or hanging. At least Archer was a man of his word, and when Jack got back, he was officially declared a freeman by the US government with the right documents to prove it. Then went on to live a happy life in peace and died a successful old rancher who also had a few best selling books.

In the real WW1 a soldier on both sides couldn't do that especially from a Frontline trench. Rifles and Machine Guns had a average maximum range of 600- 800 yards.
