* AmbiguouslyGay: Edward. Cast interviews confirm that the film goes with the interpretation that Edward was gay, which is a common theory among historians. However, the film itself plays it in a very understated way, with Edward being a StraightGay man whose relationship with another soldier is strongly implied yet ultimately kept implicit. It's also never touched upon why he wanted to be a soldier so badly in the first place; many historians theorise that the real Edward Brittain wanted to enlist ''because'' of his sexuality.
* BelligerentSexualTension: During one of Roland's first visits at the Brittain household, Vera snaps and closes her bedroom door at him. In her bedroom, she's shown smiling right after the encounter. The script notes that she finds Roland's confidence both riling and attractive.
