after finish watch the movie my friend say to me represent do you realize that we just watch over 2 hour of video about nothing . the movie be basically escapist represent show reality in makeup and look like whore and very much like hollywood movie . the main character be very good person and faithful husband and a father and care about people ( through building railroad ) . so how do put this man in a romantic extra marrital affair without damage that ultra good view of him . well and you make his neurotic wife run away with somebody else and and then make him get mad when the girl put on his wife clothing and only later give in to his feeling . really and a true story of devotion to family value and decency ( make me sick ) . the whole movie be also very zany and with childish humor ( like teletubbies ) . and to make it powerful in the end there the whole dramatic separate lover story . so what you get be a movie about life before and during war and where nobody die and main character have a romance and full of slapstick humor . how this relate to anything real . i see it only a a sickening reality obscure movie .
