HACKSAW RIDGE FYC (FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION)
In this gripping war drama, Andrew Garfield delivers a poignant performance as Desmond T. Doss, a conscientious objector during World War II. Doss stands out not only for his beliefs but also for his unwavering commitment to saving lives despite the chaos and brutality of war.
Set against the backdrop of the Battle of Okinawa, one of the bloodiest battles in the Pacific Theater, the film explores Doss's journey from a young boy shaped by his religious convictions to a dedicated medic determined to help those in need on the battlefield. His adherence to the Seventh-day Adventist faith prohibits him from bearing arms, leading to his enlistment in the army as a medic—a position that aligns with his moral values while still allowing him to serve his country.
The film not only depicts the harrowing realities of war but also showcases the internal struggles Doss faced as he fought against prejudice from his fellow soldiers who viewed his pacifism as cowardice. His resilience in the face of ridicule and institutional challenges adds depth to his character, ultimately demonstrating the strength of his convictions.
During the intense fighting on Hacksaw Ridge, Doss's bravery truly shines as he runs into the fray unarmed, rescuing wounded soldiers amid heavy gunfire. He famously saved 75 men during one of the grimmest assaults, an act of heroism that earned him the Medal of Honor, making him the first conscientious objector to receive this prestigious military accolade.
Key themes of the film include:
Courage in Conviction: Doss’s story demonstrates that true bravery can come in many forms, including the refusal to take life despite being surrounded by violence.
Faith and Perseverance: His unwavering faith propelled him forward, enabling him to embrace his mission to save lives even when faced with overwhelming odds.
Brotherhood and Sacrifice: The relationships formed among soldiers during combat highlight the importance of camaraderie and the willingness to sacrifice for others.
Directed by Mel Gibson, Hacksaw Ridge is not only a war film but also a profound narrative about humanity, faith, and resilience. It invites audiences to reflect on the moral complexities of war and the heroic acts that can emerge from it, reminding us of the power of the human spirit to do good, even in the darkest times.

WHAT YOU GET:
This item is for the original media, and includes only the media (ie. CD, floppy ...) UNLESS specifically stated above and/or in the title. If more than just the media is included, it will state which items are (ie. box, manual, etc ). Items that come in a sleeve refer to a generic CD sleeve (typically white) and will be sent with shipping protection to avoid damage during transit. If available, we will also send the front and/or back CD inserts if in stock. If these are important to you, please message us to verify we have them available to send. Please do not assume items are included other than what's stated. Again, ask questions PRIOR to purchasing if you have any concerns.
IMAGES:
All images/pictures are stock photos and are for reference only, mainly to show the type of game you will be getting. Please read "WHAT YOU GET" for what is included with the media. Screenshots may vary based on your own computer system, video card, monitor, etc.
COMPATIBILITY:
Computers are like people, each one is different. Unlike console games, a computer game may install and work flawlessly on one system but may need adjustments on another. This is due to a variety of factors, mainly the OS platform running, video card you have, drivers, protection software installed, etc. Many times manufacturers release updates to games to fix bugs and add enhancements. We would be happy to help get the game going on your computer, but ultimately compatibility issues are the responsibility of the buyer. We suggest going to Google and searching for the name of the game along with the words "system requirements" to determine if your system is suitable. Ultimately, we are not responsible for software compatibility problems or publisher's errors.
PLATFORM:
Stated within the auction is what platform the game will work on (ie. Windows, Mac, Linux...) This is a generic statement and specific platform versions (ie. XP, Vista...) will have to be researched by the buyer. Games that came out PRIOR to XP or higher will not specifically state they will work on that release, but only because they came out before those versions were made. Many, if not most, will work on XP or higher with a few quick adjustments. We provide instructions with all items purchased on how to do this adjustment using the Program Compatibility Wizard. If we find out that an item will definately not work on a specific version, we will state it. For DOS games, you may need to play it with a free DOSbox program if the Program Compatibility Wizard does not work.
64-Bit Windows OS Systems:
For 64-bit Operating Systems, older games most likely will NOT work due to 64-bit systems not being able to run 16-bit programming code (most games prior to 2000). For DOS games, you may need to play it with a free DOSbox program.
Macintosh Systems:
For Macintosh programs, most older games will need to be run in Classic Environment if you have a MAC OS X 10.0 - 10.4 version. Please research Google on how to do this, or send us a message for information prior to purchasing. If your MAC OS system doesn't support Classic Environment (ie. MAC OS X 10.5 or Higher OR Intel Macs), you will have to try running it using the free program called SheepShaver, but compatibility is not ensured. Please research prior to purchasing or ask questions.
MEDIA FORMAT:
Please verify you have the required hardware in order to use the specified media (ie. CD, DVD, floppy drives, etc.) If the item comes as a floppy disc, make sure you have either the needed 3.5" floppy drive or the bigger and older 5.25" floppy drive.
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR A SMOOTH PURCHASE:
Ask questions PRIOR to purchasing an order to avoid any confusion.
Be patient if there are problems during installation or gameplay. Typically someone else has
already ran into that problem and has listed a solution online. Contact us and we will do our best to help.
Be sure to update your video card drivers and search for updates to the game from the manufacturer.
