Radiohead was such a perfect choice

I love this movie, I saw it originally at the theaters at the independent/foreign section in the smaller theaters where only two only three people ever were in there. I knew nothing about the movie but I remember how I was in awe when I left.

I remember enjoying hearing Radiohead when I first watched it, but I don't think the emotion played during the specific scenes really hit me until I just watched it years later, by myself. The opening scene always gives me the chills and somehow gets my eyes watery. 'You and whose army' was such a perfect song to open, especially with the children. Not directly with how it goes hand in hand with the war theme, but specifically with the somber dark tone that it provides the viewer. The emotional enriched scene while seeing these boys being forced into a war they know nothing about.

I can just watch that opening scene over and over, it was done so well.
