Best part of story, including ending: I liked this story because it deals with the effects of coming home from war and how a man with nothing to lose will go to great lengths to seek revenge.

Best scene in story: My favorite scene of the film is when Charles is awarded the money and it is obvious that he is uncomfortable doing so.
