这部由HBO自制的电影是“汉堡高地”导演约翰艾文的又一战争写实影片，背景设在第二次世界大战，血腥的贺根森林之役。在整排的袍泽被敌人歼灭后，唯一幸存的二等兵大卫曼宁（朗爱德 饰，“彗星撞地球”、“豪情四兄弟”）被升为士官，由于承受不了带领新兵的压力，曼宁以精神不适任的理由申请退役，然而曼宁的指挥官（马丁唐纳文 饰，“她和他和他们之间”）却向他提出条件只要带兵攻下一座德军的哨站，他就将曼宁的退役申请呈报上去。但在残酷无情的战争中，重要的并非胜利，而是如何自战场上生还。当提起第二次世界大战的史诗电影时，“拯救雷恩大兵”及“红色警戒”或许已抢尽锋芒，但该片绝对是一部不容错过且毫不逊色的最佳战争写实电影

Laura's parents divorced when she was eight. Now, at thirteen, she lives with her mother, her stepfather, two stepbrothers, a stepsister, and a half-brother. She used to visit her father, stepmother (third stepmother) and half-sister, but now *another* divorce is in the works, so Laura visits her father and his pregnant girlfriend -- who's only six years older than she is. Who should she feel loyalty to? And is it any wonder she wants to run away from home?

If you think your family is messed up, then you better take look at Laura Chartoff's life. Her parents divorced when she was 8, following both of them remarrying. Living with her mother, Laura endures her materialistic step-father Keith, her vain step-sister Corrine, her militarily obsessed step-brother Kurt, and her far too serious/far too smart half brother Sam. Laura's father is no help, currently the middle of a divorce with his wife Barbara and barely seeing his little daughter Jessie due to the fact that his mistress Stephanie is about to have twins. The only relative Laura gets along with is Keith's eldest son Josh, so when her relatives becomes too much for the 13 year old to handle, Laura runs away to his cabin. When the entire clan comes to track her down, she runs again, thinking her step-brother betrayed her. While her family finds common ground in their worry over her, Laura experiences life on her own and realizes her family may not be so bad.
