Layered storytelling and rich character development distinguish this television mini-series based on the semi-autobiographical writings of Evelyn Waugh. Daniel Craig plays Guy Crouchback, a soldier fighting with the British forces in the Second World War, and the drama charts Crouchback's grappling with the ravages of war, his relationship with his ex-wife, and his own shortcomings. Beautifully put together, executed, and acted, SWORD OF HONOUR is dramatic, absorbing viewing from start to finish.
