Hacksaw Ridge (2016) - full transcript

The true story of Desmond T. Doss, the conscientious objector who, at the Battle of Okinawa, won the Medal of Honor for his incredible bravery and regard for his fellow soldiers. We see his upbringing and how this shaped his views, especially his religious view and anti-killing stance. We see Doss's trials and tribulations after enlisting in the US Army and trying to become a medic. Finally, we see the hell on Earth that was Hacksaw Ridge.

[MAN] Have you not heard?

The Lord is the everlasting God,
the Creator of the ends of the Earth.

He will not grow tired or weary,

and His understanding no one can fathom.

He gives strength to the weary
and increases the power of the weak.

Even youths grow tired and weary,
and young men stumble and fall.



But those who hope in the Lord
will renew their strength.

They will soar on wings like eagles.

They will run and not grow weary.

They will walk and not be faint.
