- Synopsis:
At the heart of the story is one man's heroic quest - both to fight for a deep moral cause and to reclaim his manhood after a shattering divorce from the society beauty Virginia Troy (Megan Dodds). But Guy Crouchback's (Daniel Craig) encounters with the absurd reality in the British Army from 1939-45. strewn with bureaucratic blunders, military debacles and indelibly funny characters, prove to be more of a challenge than facing the enemy itself. In strong contrast to Guys military experience, his renewed and passionate acquaintance with his dangerously beautiful ex-wife, provokes a personal and moral crisis that tests - to the limit - both his undying love for Virginia and his profound sense of duty. Sword of Honour is both a war story and a love story - as well as a biting satire on the emergence of the world we live in today. - Actors:
