one of the few best film of all time . the change from black and white to colour for the heaven and earth sequence be directorial excellence . the plot be extremely clever and the complete film leave you overwhelm by all of the human emotion and and although a war film it doesn not discriminate . i must have see this film more time than any other and and i never tire of it . it be a film that make you question your own mortality and beliefs on what happen after our demise .
