Two young soldiers, clutching their guns, are sitting in a living room which is filled with modern art. The radio is playing a cantata. One of the soldiers rises and changes the station. A ‘40s dance tune plays. The two men dance together. The film ends.

Here is a rude guess as I have never seen this film, but have a hunchy hoo that it is Maurice.
Wives Under Suspicion (1938)

Silence will save me from being wrong (and foolish), but it will also deprive me of the possibility of being right. -Igor Stravinsky, composer (17 Jun 1882-1971)

No, sorry. Here's another hint:

Maurice is a lovely movie; the movie I'm going for here (despite the fact that it has been called a masterpiece) is by no stretch of the imagination a lovely movie, despite the rather poignant final scene.

Today's hint: One critic called this film essential to have seen but impossible to watch.
