Product Description:
An Academy Award-winning short by Aaron Schneider, TWO SOLDIERS is based on the heartwarming short story by William Faulkner. A pair of brothers, Pete and Willie Grier, live modestly in the North Carolina countryside. Pete (Ben Allison, COLD MOUNTAIN) is a wise, loving older brother to eight-year-old Willie (Jonathan Furr, PRE APPROVED), who in turn idolizes Pete. The two do everything together, from performing their long list of chores to roaming the forests, and Pete provides the young boy with guidance and care. But when the U.S. enters the war after the shocking attack on Pearl Harbor, Pete is called up, while Willie must stay behind with the family. This doesn't sit well with the stubborn young boy, however, and he sets off on an amazing journey to find his brother. Ultimately, the charismatic Colonel James McKellogg (Ron Perlman, HELLBOY) helps the boy to find his way. In this moving exploration of love of country and the ties between brothers, the performances and production are all top-notch, and Faulkner's 1942 tale continues to resonate.
