A history of verse is laid alongside that of warfare, and the ways in which they are braided together proves fascinating.

Rick King's stirring documentary Voices in Wartime is not, as you might guess from the title, a compilation of soldiers' battlefield letters to their families back home. This intense little film is about poetry, and not just Homer's "Iliad."

Filled with some of the most powerful poetry and shattering images ever to come out of warfare.

Poorly organized mishmash of archival war films, scholarly chatter, and literary quotations.

The film's self-limiting pacifism precludes a closer look at the poetry of war, which is not synonymous with poetry against war.
