Seven-time Oscar nominee Dennis Gassner was in Alaska recovering from back surgery when he got an interesting email.
“Do not do the ‘Bond’ film,” it read. “I have a film that’s very ambitious. Sending script now.”
The note, Gassner recalls, was from director Sam Mendes, who he’d previously worked with on 2005’s “Jarhead” and 2012’s “Skyfall.” The film in question was “1917,” his World War I epic that’s now earned 10 Oscar nominations.

“We were going to show things that were uncomfortable for the audience, but we were going to...
