It’s called The Messenger; it stars Woody Harrelson and it’s the story of a lifer Army captain and a used-up, shot-over staff sergeant who get assigned to the stressful job of bringing to GI families the news that their son, father or husband has just been killed in Afghanistan.
I never heard of anyone in the cast but Harrelson and expected little from the film. But it really got to me. I think it would to you, too.
