[color=Blue]The Great War (1964)[/color]


Synopsis:

A landmark production in British television history, unseen for

almost 40 years.

In the early 1960s the BBC embarked on one of their most important

and ambitious series ever. It was to be the definitive history of the

First World War, complete in twenty-six 40-minute episodes. So

successful were the BBC that they created one of the most highly

acclaimed television documentary series ever - and an inspired

account of the world-shattering events of 1914-1918 that remains

totally unequalled to this day.

The Great War is narrated by Sir Michael Redgrave, and employs the

voice skills of many other leading actors of the day including Sir

Ralph Richardson and Marius Goring.

To tell its story, the series includes authentic archive footage and

stunning photographic images gathered from 37 separate sources around

the world. It also features interviews with many veterans of the war

(most were still only in their 60s), as well as almost 150 separate

extracts from diaries, letters & reports from the war.

Hugely successful and critically acclaimed around the world, The

great war's style, content and high production values were later to

inspire Jeremy Isaacs to create "The world at war".
