They Shall Not Grow Old (2018)
Country: GB/NZ
Technical: bw/col 99m
Director: Peter Jackson
Cast: doc.
Synopsis:
The First World War begins and men rush to sign up. There follows some hasty training and boarding of ships, after which jittery black and white 1.33:1 images give way to colourised 1.85:1, and suddenly we are there with them.
Review:
Peter Jackson and the Imperial War Museum join forces to produce this arresting revival of faces one hundred years old, colourised and �smoothed out� to a more lifelike frame speed. Voiceovers from the archives complete a fitting memorial, but the absence of inner structure regarding prosecution of the war makes for unremitting viewing at feature length.
