1917 is one of the AFI’s 10 best of 2019 and is nominated for Best Picture and Best Director (and some down-ballot awards).
This is likely to win Best Picture and probably Best Director. I’m actively rooting for Best Director, and (while I want Parasite to win Best Picture) I’d be OK with it getting Best Picture.
1917 is brutal and unflinching. It’s an intense depiction of war and a great story well told. It’s not a genre I’m fond of, but I appreciate it. I’m not sure how many times I’d watch it but I’m glad I saw it once.
