   Is benediction a melodrama?

   • In “Benediction,” Davies turns Sassoon’s life into a self-conscious Hollywood melodrama, a grand historical tale that makes its very historicity its subject—and a story of memory that reflects history in an original form. Befitting a movie about a great writer, “Benediction” is a film of copious and brilliant dialogue.

   When did benediction start and end?

   • Sassoon lived from 1886 to 1967, and was already a writer of note by the time that the First World War began. The story in “Benediction” begins in 1914 and ends in the nineteen-sixties, and its framework is chronological, though the movie is filled with audacious leaps in time, both ahead and back.

   Why does benediction come unstuck?

   • It’s American. Yet it’s perfect. Benediction comes unstuck only when it seeks to interest us in Sassoon’s inter-war love life and subsequent God-bothering. Siegfried, apparently, had terrible taste in men and we are encouraged to boo two of his preening, promiscuous and poisonous lovers.
