Testament of Youth.
Beautifully shot, well acted by a cast who were convincingly close to the age of the historical characters (typically 18-22). Historically accurate in many ways, even for shots no more than 5 seconds long. Very true to the book, with only minor conflating of characters and events.
Having said all that, I didn't enjoy a single minute of it. Google Vera Brittain and you will understand.
