There is a practical intelligence to the script associated with Charlie Huston and Jason Aaron, which rarely loses sight of the issue's immediate objective. Dialogue carries information most naturally when it grows from disagreement or urgency. The language reflects 2008, yet the central concern with courage remains accessible. The script keeps returning to choices and consequences instead of allowing explanation to replace drama.
