Adapted from the famous late 1930's antiwar book of the same name written by the director himself.

On the last day of WWI, Joe Bonham, a young American soldier is wounded by a mortar shell. He has lost his arms, legs, eyes, ears, mouth and nose. He is kept alive by doctors who assume he is a vegetable and keep him in a warehouse. But  in fact Joe remains conscious and able to think. The only one thing that he can carry out is immersing himself in a world of his own memories and dreams.

A compassionate nurse discovers that Joe is conscious. He gets the chance of communicating to his doctors, via Morse code. He requests that either to be put in a glass coffin as a demonstration of war, or to be mercifully killed. Nevertheless, he is denied and must keep on living as a living dead.

改编自1930年代末的同名反战小说,其作者正是导演本人。

一战的最后一天,年轻的美国士兵Joe Bonham被炮弹炸伤。他失去了双臂双腿以及眼耳鼻口。他仍然活着,医生们当他是植物人把他放在仓库中。但事实上Joe仍然有知觉,还能够思考。他所能做的唯一一件事就是沉浸在自己的回忆和梦想中。

一个富有同情心的护士发现Joe有感知能力。他获得了与医生交流的机会,使用的是莫尔斯电码。他请求将 自己放进玻璃棺木作为战争怪物展示,要么就让他安乐死。然而,他的要求被拒绝,他必须继续像活死人一样活下去。

Metallica的歌曲OneMTV就大量使用了电影中的片段。
