N is for "1917"

 The letter N is light on quantity and quality. I choose "1917" because it is a recent war movie that shows the genre is still capable of significant films. And war movies can be critically acclaimed. 

Two British soldiers must deliver a message halting an attack that will be walking into an ambush.  The idea came from a story director Sam Mendes’ grandfather told him.  Mendes went on to co-write the story with Krysty Wilson-Cairns.  This is Mendes’ second war film after “Jarhead” in 2005.  He shouldn’t wait so long for his next one.  “1917” recently won the Golden Globe for Best Drama.  He won for Best Director.  He owes a lot to his cinematographer Roger Deakins.  This was their fourth collaboration.  Deakins is one of the premier cinematographers and this may be his masterpiece.  The movie was nominated for 10 Academy Awards including Best Picture, Director, and Original Score. It won for Cinematography, Sound Mixing, and Visual Effects. It won BAFTAs for Best Film, Outstanding British Film, and Best Director.
