World War II: Lost Films [DVD] [UK Import]DVD
The only ones to see war like this were the ones who lived it. Until now? W W I I Lost Films is not just one of H I S T O R Y's biggest projects, but one of the most ambitious productions ever undertaken in documentary television history. Over three thousand hours of high definition colour film (filmed in colour, not colorised) was discovered in locations all around the world. This dramatic footage has not been seen before and is the backdrop to the incredible personal stories of 12 American soldiers recounting their experiences of fighting in the war's biggest battles. Using the diaries of these men, W W I I Lost Films creates a moving, personal and detailed look at life at the front lines. Diaries were illegal for U. S. soldiers to carry, but the 12 characters in this series hid them away in their packs and recorded their experiences in detail. W W I I Lost Films is the first World War I I documentary showing the perspective of both sides in full, immersive colour and 5. 1 surround sound making this the holy grail for W W I I buffs! Voiced by a star-studded cast including L L Cool J, Steve Zahn, Ron Livingston, Rob Lowe - wrapped together in a reverent narration by Gary Sinise. Enhances the viewers' experience even more with the addition of never-before-seen bonus features such as a 30-minute " Making-of" documentary and extended profiles of the soldiers. 3 discs in a luxury 6 page Digipak in a double walled slipcase.
