I saw it coming when he told the boy that it was going to be OK, even when he knew it wasn't. He could have said "you are about to die in my arms", but he preferred to comfort the boy in the latter's last moments of life, even if it meant more suffering for himself. A beautiful gesture.

Awesome film with great actors and amazing cinematography. I'd love to see the BTS for this as well.
