Braids
A poster for the famous 1960s musical, Braids.
Braids is the story of four sisters who are in the army.
Bloodthirsty to the core, they love nothing better than a full on charge with bayonets, much shouting and the simple pleasures of military drill at dawn.
Of course, such an idyllic existence can't last, and demobilisation soon rears its ugly head.
As the film ends, the sisters are hurled into a peacetime nightmare, where all they can do each day is hang about looking soppy in trees and braiding each other's hair.
All this with a set of songs unparalleled at the time, including the catchy "This is the yawning of the way of the Erebus", and "Earth".
