Journey's End is my favourite play and I have seen it staged over half a dozen times. I'm also a big fan of the filmed version, Aces High. This version is also now added to my list of must-watch over and again. I've seen this so many times now and I love the flawless execution. Such wonderful casting, design, atmosphere and direction. It's a near-masterpiece. Bettany is utterly heartbreaking as Uncle, and Claflin and Butterfield round out the leads well. An amazingly impressive achievement.
