And then I go to the cinema and watch a documentary about the war. You’d just told me about it, and then I go and watch a film about a war you were in. Explosions going off around you. You’re carrying a gun, you’re filthy. Right in front of us a soldier dies, a young guy. And then there’s a casualty, and then another dead body. And you’re shouting orders. I can’t take it all in, that these explosions and shots and deaths aren’t just faked for the film, that the dirt on your face isn’t make-up. That you aren’t just some ripped Brad Pitt lookalike. And that you really have killed another person.
