Passchendaele (2008)

While I didn't enjoy this film, that doesn't mean you won't. No matter what I say, the people involved in this project did it: they actually made a movie. That's something to be applauded. With that established...

Written, directed and starring Paul Gross, Passchendaele is clearly a passion project. The grim reality of war is accurately presented but unfortunately, much of the film’s romantic passions come off as cheesy and disingenuous. This picture is much less than the sum of its parts.

In 1917, Sergeant Michael Dunne (Gross) is sent home as a war hero. While recovering in Calgary, Alberta, he meets nurse Sarah Mann (Caroline Dhavernas). Her younger brother, David (Joe Dinicol), isn’t eligible for military service due to his asthma but his girlfriend’s father pulls some strings and allows him to enlist. At the behest of Sarah, Sergeant Dunne returns to the battlefield to look over the young man, tackling his PTSD in the process.

Paul Gross incorporated certain of his grandfather’s own World War I experiences into the story. You can tell there’s a reverence for the armed forces here and a firm grip on the reality that war is hell. The film opens with a scene that burns itself into your head - the kind that would haunt a soldier until the end of their days. After Dunne and David are deployed overseas, there’s another great scene of armed combat. What was already a chaotic battle descends into madness. Guns are tossed away and men kill each other in the mud with knives, axes, rocks and even their bare hands. These moments are well done, as are other scenes at home. David wants to enlist so badly is because of his father, who left to fight in the war… on Germany’s side. We often hear of how unfairly people and governments treated citizens they theorized would align with their enemies during the war. It’s easy for us to feel like it was wrong and to gain sympathy for the people being victimized. In this case, it still feels wrong but you can certainly better understand why Sarah and David’s neighbors resent them. It's not theoretical. David's father is overseas right now killing his neighbors.

Everything Passchendaele does well makes the film’s mistakes that much more perplexing. Jim Mezon plays Major Randolph Dobson-Hughes, the recruitment officer who - at every opportunity - makes fun of his assistant for filling out forms instead of being on the battlefield and of Dunne for what he perceives as the man’s cowardice. Even if people like this did exist at the time, you know everything there is to know about this man after the first meeting. His character is only there so he can be punished later on. It’s supposed to be cathartic. Instead, it makes your eyes roll. Or maybe your “worst thing about this movie” pick might be the love plots, which are supposed to make us emotionally invested in the heroes but become increasingly embarrassing instead. Dunne meets Sarah on three separate occasions. It’s supposed to feel like destiny, like this romance is bigger than any distance the war might put between them and it might… if it weren’t for their sex scene, which comes in at the absolute worst time in every way. Nearly every scene that tugs at our heartstrings falls flat.

There isn’t a hint of cynicism or irony in Passchendaele, but there probably should be. A few lines of text appear on-screen right before the credits. They make so much of what we just saw feel pointless. Nothing about the film makes you think this was deliberate; it’s simply something that other, better war films have done before and Passchendaele is attempting to duplicate their success by emulating them. This feeling that the directorial choices Gross makes were made because "he had to" is present throughout and explains why so much of the drama and character moments feel so mechanical.
