I know war is not actually romantic. I know this.
But pictures like these, from TIME, don't help. Call it Righteous Guerrilla Struggle porn.
Yeah, you know what? I hate this photo gallery. Resistance fighters in dewy sun-dappled glens? Give me a break. It's ugly stuff.
Still. Argh. Still. Terrific pictures.

Terence Malick's underrated "The Thin Red Line" meditates about issues of war and romanticism. This question has long been an issue, also notably during World War I, where military aesthetics became an interest of many artists of the period.

this one from the original war photographer, Robert Capa. Totally wish I could go see this show.
