Produced and Directed by Peter Jackson:
The acclaimed documentary is an extraordinary look at the soldiers and events of the Great War, using film footage captured at the time, now presented as the world has never seen. By utilizing state-of-the-art restoration, colorization and 3D technologies, and pulling from 600 hours of BBC archival interviews, Jackson puts forth an intensely gripping, immersive and authentic experience through the eyes and voices of the British soldiers who lived it. - 엔터테인먼트

“Alright boys, here it comes. We’re in the pictures”
That's something that will stick with me. Back then, motion-capturing technology was a brand new thing, so it would have been an extraordinary experience to be captured on video.
Just Fucking Beautiful🇬🇧🇬🇧😂

Their teeth too... The guy to the left of him are even worse!
Little would he know that many years later the whole world would see that footage from "the pictures".
"Here it is boys... We're in the pictures!"
They survived hell long enough to smile for the camera. God rest brave men from all sides.
they survived way worse than hell.
@@marc789 yea no one talks about ww1 but from a battlefield perspective was just as bad If not worse

You take and make humor wherever you can. It helps you forget at least for a few seconds
My father's grandfather fought in both world wars (I'm from Pakistan btw) as a Indian soldier, he was a paramedic and when Pakistan received independence in 1947 he was made the head of a state owned hospital.
When I was 14 yrs. old I had the honor to look in on and take care of a WWI vet. This was circa 1974 and his name was William "Bill" Scotson. "A son of a Scot!" he would always remind me. I was an American boy in Massachusetts and he was a Brit. living in the states. I used to check on him after school, and make him a lunch. I mostly made poached eggs on toast. His favorite. He told me so many things about WWI. He drove an armored car, and he always reminded me that it had four speeds forward, and two speeds in reverse. I was 14 and he let me drive his car. He used to tell me that if we get stopped by the police - I'll just tell them that you're driving on my license. Even at the age of 14 I knew that that was shady. I said, "OK". : )
Revisiting after a year. I wanted to confirm that, in 2020, it was still the greatest thing I've ever seen in 50 years on earth. Confirmed.
I couldn't agree more. Essential viewing for everyone and really ought to be shown in all of our schools to. Lest we forget..
I could say the very same thing, only, I've been on this earth 56 years now, and it was most definitely the greatest thing I've ever seen on screen (saw it in late 2019.)
You're not wrong
I still need to watch the whole thing though lol
@@e.t.2604 its a bit too graphic for them to consider showing that in schools
I honestly wouldn't care personally, but it would have to be like highschool level at least but people are weak now anyways, I dknt think people fainting over blood and shit really happened at all back in those days haha
@@gimpyrules6714 that is everything wrong with school today. Stuff like this should be a requirement in high schools
Coincidentally, J.R.R Tolkien served in the First World War, where he started writing his stories about Middle-Earth. His friendships during the war inspired the relationships between the characters he created. Come full circle to see that Peter Jackson, the one who visualized his stories onto the big screen, do a ground breaking documentary during the war where Tolkien envisioned his world in the trenches. I can't wait to see this.
MegaRedemption Exactly, we get to see exactly what it must of been like for him to write such a great story. It must have been horrible and his only way out was to create his own world that brought him away from his horrific reality.
Well, that escalated quickly
DeadKing66 damn, going for the kill there, lol.
@DeadKing66 Unless your inspirations in life are racist and hateful, no one you look up to is proud of you. Be better than you are.
Perhaps, Peter Jackson is Tolkien, reincarnated.
It sucks that something so revolutionary for its time will only be in theaters for two days.
Lmao so true! XD🖒
And Warner Bros.'s marketing department can't be arsed to link to the schedule here. Wankers.
Yes it does....EVERYONE should see this
It's already been on TV in the UK
It will be forever on the internet.
The last few minutes of the documentary during which the soldiers tell us that no one identified with them nor wanted to hear about their experiences in the war after they’d come back was heartbreaking.
They sadly have the moniker of The Lost Generation which is a shameful moniker
"You come back from the years of blood and mud and all they want to know is whether you were in close combat..."

It really sad it took till ww2 for people what a sacrifice they made
I remember that part in the documentary, I was very surprised by it but very sad about it too.
Thankfully some spoke about it to pass the stories onto the next generation.
My generation doesn’t realize how good they got it. They think this cant happen again. But it can. God bless those great men
@Lewi Jones I really argee with you, even if I am one of this generation, I at least slowly start to appreciate what we have
@Levi Jones you obviously have no idea that this was a royal fued and wasnt a war for freedom, thats complete bullshit, i wish you would stop listening to propoganda and see reality for what it is
@@jamesi2018 obviously you don’t know anything about the occupation of Germany back in those days. France, Belgium, and other counties fought for their freedom from germany. Stfu. You look stupid with your comment. I know my history but did i say anything about what the war was about? No
@@levijones1874 moron
cant happen again? oh boy, youre in for a surprise, just wait for the economic collapse, sooner than later.
This should be shown in every classroom across the globe. I learned more about WWI in this film than I ever learned in school.

According to Peter Jackson, a copy of the film has already been supplied to every school in Britain, so, gratefully, this film will be widely seen among school children in the years to come!

Very astute observation. For those who survived the war, they'd be alive at an average age of 119.
@@WoWGirl6 Highly depends on what scene you saw. One scene in the sunken road almost all of those died. The others high causalities but a significant number would come back depending.

"Suicide In The Trenches"
I knew a simple soldier boy
Who grinned at life in empty joy,
Slept soundly through the lonesome dark,
And whistled early with the lark.
In winter trenches, cowed and glum,
With crumps and lice and lack of rum,
He put a bullet through his brain.
No one spoke of him again.
You smug-faced crowds with kindling eye
Who cheer when soldier lads march by,
Sneak home and pray you'll never know
The hell where youth and laughter go.

There is more then you think
@@neptune3569 yeah, what about the movies of George Méliès?
@@theodorecarter6601 Compared to the 20th century
I posted some from 1895 on my channel if ur internet
This is all British footage of the British because the imperial war museum asked Peter Jackson to make a 30 minute documentary for the 100th anniversary.
Once Peter started, he just kept going. Sound was added to the footage using lip readers and voice actors from the area the soldiers were from.
The narration is by men who were actually there, taken from recordings made in the 1950's and 60's.
I would love to see French, German, and US versions using their own footage from that era.
Peace
So gnarly. Thank you for the information
Well the British were the main force. America kind of came in at the end.
I mean he does add New Zealand footage in some scenes. You’d class that as British footage though since they’re technically British Colonial troops. NZ was independent at the time though.
@@Z2Z9 well the commonwealth as a whole did play a major role too, ask the canadian..we were in the war from day 1 and more than 600 000 people served in the army out of a population just over 11 millions at the time for a war that was across the ocean.

@@Rashomon20s Ask them to show it
Not gona lie. I cried watching this
🤧😢😭
I got misty just watching the trailer. Not sure if I could make it through the whole film.
Please can i ask you to watch ....The Somme then and now.. 1916 - 2016....I have studied this subject for 35 years i served in the Brigade of Guards in my works holidays with my own cost and with home pc i made this ...what he did was wrong..He altered the truth i never did nor did i have the millions or technology to do it .....
Why are you not verified?
Yep. It’s crazy to think about what these guys saw and had to do on a daily basis. That a level of bravery that I don’t think we will ever understand.
Took my teenage son to see it in theatre. It impacted us so strongly we both teared up. Then he could appreciate the sacrifice his great great grandfather had made.
Wholeheartedly, anyone with OR without military history should see this film. It’s at the top of the very very small list of films that I think everyone should watch even just once in their lifetime.
You're an awesome father, my dad took me to see it in theatres in 2018 in Canada.
When the movie ended it was just dead silent for like 5 minutes after. Nobody moved, got up, some cried, but nobody spoke.
It was unequivocally the most surreal, moving movie experience I have ever had.
I remember that my grandfather told me stories about my great grandfather, who was serving as mounted medic for the Germans in WW1 and positioned around Belgium, facing the crulest scenes on both sides. He told my grandpa, that at some point at the end of the war, everybody of either side helped to rescue every injured person on the battlefields, no matter of nationality or rank, just because they wanted to "show hell, that it had no chance to settle on earth". We are all brothers and sisters.
That brought a tear to my eye.
California Dreamin bruh
@California Dreamin What political correctness there are time limits on films so you pick a topic. In this case the troops overseas from their own words. As Peter Jackson said there are many more things to cover, home front, other Nations, and the aftermath of the war. Plus this was limited to what was actually filmed I doubt' much of what your talking about was filmed.
California Dreamin sure but why did you have to make it a political thing?
@California Dreamin In 1918 there was no Social Welfare System in Britain.
Either do some research or just STFU and stop peddling bullshit.
I can’t imagine being 15, 16, 17 years old and going into war. I remember when I was 15 and just finishing 8th grade and transitioning into highschool and thinking my preteen angst was a big deal. It really hit home watching these young men doing this out of a sense of patriotic duty and like they said “giving up their youth to do a job that needed to be done”
Most of these guys were thrown into a literal human meat grinder of machine gun fire and rifle fire. I truly believe WW1 was the worst than any war in history.
Fr, I'm 15 and I can't imagine anyone my age fighting in a war. Like I don't even have chest hair yet
@@briskxd1093 What? Worse than WW2? Nah bro you trippin
@@-xnnybimb-9398 It depends on how you define "worst war". In terms of death WWII was worse. But WWI was unique in that battles could go on for weeks. The reason for these lengthy battles was because the soldiers were in trenches so the battle lines, for the most part, did not change. The condition of the trenches were terrible as well, often having to deal with lice, rats, disease, thick mud, rain that would pool up in the trenches and also rotting corpses that weren't able to be buried. They also had to deal with intense artillery fire which could break soldiers psychologically. WWI was the war where they coined the term "shellshock" because so many soldiers suffered mental breakdowns from constant artillery bombardment.They also had to deal with gas attacks which were horrific in their own way. WWII on the other hand had a more fluid battle line and battles would not stretch on, for the most part, as long as they would in WWI. Both wars were bad but i think WWI was just more of a grueling and psychologically taxing war to take part in.
It's estimated that the British army, Navy and marines collectively allowed around 250,000 under age recruits 14,15 ,16 year olds to enlist many refused to leave the ranks once their ages had been found out .All volunteered. Little did they know what was waiting for them
My grandfather - born 1898 and died 1974 - was a combat vet of WW I. When I was a little kid I would ask him to tell me about the war and he would simply say, "I don't want to talk about it. There is nothing to tell you." I think his experiences scarred him forever very deeply. I don't believe if he was alive today he would want to see this but I finally know why he would never speak about it.
Most people don't realize how much of a blessing this film is.
Only if we learn.
Saw this yesterday. If you do go stay for Peter Jacksons commentary after the credits. He explains how they did it and provides more insight for specific scenes. The one that sticks was the footage showing the Lancashire regiment resting in a sunken road before going over the top at the Somme. Peter explains that in 30 minutes virtually everyone in that footage will be dead or wounded. You are seeing the last moments of their lives. How can you not be moved by that? Haunting.
There are after credits scenes? The cinema I went to switched the lights on as soon as the credits roll.
Anonoz Chong Yes, was very informative. Theater should of shown it.
Just... man. Unfathomable. The single scene that struck me the most was the one you mentioned, where they are waiting to go over the top in the sunken road. If you look closely, you can see a young man who is clearly terrified of what is waiting for him. It just kills my heart to see the fear in his eyes. And yet... he did his job.
Yes, you can’t step into that hell called no man’s land for some flag or a noble cause ,they did it for each other.
Anonoz Chong for about 20 minutes, yes.
I am sure that the guy hitting his buddy with that board was the funny guy in his group
😂😂😂😂
Just goes to show, war may have changed, but grunts will always fuck around.
Soren Wille I think the point is that humans will always play.
Private Pile's body was recovered later that day from the latrine pit. It appears he was shot in the back. Although there is still much conjecture as to how or why he had a wooden plank shoved up his arse.

They were just like us. They laughed, smiled, got angry, cried, felt pain, and sadly had to inflict pain on others. They were normal people. They had their soaring highs, and deepest lows. And too often do we forget that it wasn’t in black and white, but in the vibrant colors that we see ourselves. This film helps us remember
1:15 incredibly sad scene, this regiment went over the top about 30 seconds later and were wiped out. You can see how scared the poor guy on the left is.
My cousin told me about his maternal grandfather's WW1 experience. He with six friends volunteered for the British army. They thought it would just be a great adventure. He was badly wounded, recovered and returned to the fighting in France. When the nightmare was finally over, he returned home the only survivor. All his friends had been killed. Worse still, some of the relatives of those killed bitterly resented that he was the lucky one to survive and gave him verbal abuse.
Out of curiosity how do you know this? Was it in the film?
That's the one face in this trailer that absolutely stood out for me. The expression in his face is one of paralyzing fear - I could hardly imagine what it must've been like. Watching this footage almost chokes me up to be honest.
@@koivu11huet39 It was mentioned in the post credit scene that showed how the movie was made that those men were sent over the top five minutes later and all slaughtered. Not exactly thirty seconds
@ james you are the first person who sees reality, the others are just kidding themselves, if it was they who had to do it they wouldnt be saying it was a good and heroic thing but a total waste of young lives on both sides, this was a royal fued and the common man was duped into fighting each other to settle a score between royal dynasties and hence why most of the fuckers were executed after the war, good riddance to them
This is the most incredible thing I’ve ever watched. I’ve always, always loved Peter Jackson right back to ‘Heavenly Creatures’ and LOTR but this is his most breathtaking film by far. Just to really, truly see what these poor young lads went through in blazing colour, it’s so humbling and fills me with so many emotions I can’t even begin to articulate. I hope all these boys in the film are somewhere nice, looking down on us, having a good laugh over their new movie star fame.
"We're in the pictures!"
woah you got a tick next to your username
Here it comes lads, we're in the pictures.
I’ve loved Peter Jackson right back to ‘Brain Dead’ and ‘Meet the Feebles’.
Me too. The entirety of World War 1 is incredibly sad. So many young men thrown into the slaughter by the millions, and for what? lest we forget
The last WW1 soldier died in 2012, then this film was made just 6 years after. It would have been so sweet if he had lived long enough to see this film. So he could've seen his friends who fought along side him once again.
Why do you really think he,d want to see it again all his buddy,s blown to bits living in the mud waiting to be killed and your forgetting he would have his memories
@@scotty101ire scotty101ire I'm sure he probably would have loved to hear about his fellow soldiers experiences in the war. In the end of the film one of the soldiers spoke about how no one who didn't experience it wouldn't understand and didn't give much care with it and how only the others who had gone what he went through would want to talk about it. Plus the film isn't just about the deaths, you see so many things that happened so long ago but it looks like it was yesterday. I'm sure he would have at least enjoyed looking back, fully restored and in color with audio. He'd get to see his "buddies" and maybe get to remember those people's faces that he probably forgot. But we don't know, we never knew him.

1:15 The face of the man in the front on the left makes me cry. That is what fear looks like. Just absolute fear.
I believe they were all aware of their sad fate, that 5 minutes later they went over the top and were completely wiped out. Nothing they could have done about it, may they rest in piece
“ Nothing can be loved or hated unless it is first understood.” - Leonardo da Vinci.
It just came to me after watching that they are all dead. All of them. Not a single one is left alive. How privileged are we to be able to see what they have seen and hear their wisdom. It also hammers home what tragedy death is...
About a dozen years ago Britain held a memorium for WWI and their final three veterans attended. One fellow, who was around 108 years old, stood and addressed a large crowd. He said that since he had been one of the youngest soldiers he thought he might be one of the oldest survivors, but he never thought he'd be the final survivor. Then he said he finally knew why he had lived so long; it was to stand there and tell everyone "that they died for us".
I think I recall seeing in the paper in about 2010 an article about the last WW1 vet dying at 101. I'm assuming they meant American veteran then considering that information. I've said it in one comment already but I'll say it again, lest we forget.
Too bad nobody listens. Every WW1 vet was strongly anti-war for a reason, at the end of this film they all push a strong anti-war stance from their own mouths and now they're all gone, WW1 celebrations are becoming far more pro-war and jingoistic and people are outright attacked for taking an anti-war stance (Corbyn and Stop the Wars activists horrendously so). This film at least carries the strong anti-war message, but it's largely getting lost. Journalists are losing their jobs these days if they dare point out that WW1 remembrance was supposed to be anti-war.

Excuse me but how did you guys see this documentary. I have been searching for it and came up with nothing. If you see this can you please point me in the right direction.
My grandfather served on the German side from 1915-1918. He was court martialled to serve as Stormtrooper because he punched an arrogant officer in the face (called the soldiers coming from the frontline stinking pigs). He was burried alive in a bunker by a close artillery impact, wounded 7 times, labelled a "hopeless case" once and left in the dying-ward. He made it. Later in WW2 he was conscripted as officer, to command a POW camp. When it was liberated by the Soviets, they wanted to shoot him for being a POW camp commander. The allied soldiers protected him, saying he treated them good. He returned to civilian life and died age 81.
I am amazed by this man, by his strenght, resilience and humane spirit.

My great grandfather fought in this war. I was too young for him to tell me anything about it, and he passed away when I was 5. But when I was in my teens, my great grandmother was still alive and she told something I will never forget: "our soldiers went away as boys, but came back as men." That has stayed with me since she passed away 34 years ago. Here's to you, Private Thomas Sampson, who charged into the Argonne woods 3 days after your 19th birthday with over 20,000 brothers, some of them sick and dying from Spanish Flu, and drove the Germans back into Belgium on October 31, 1918.
Just watched this documentary, and I had to write down this quote:
"You don't look, you see.
You don't hear, you listen.
You taste the top of your mouth, your nose is filled with fumes and death.
The veneer of civilization has dropped away"
This is exactly how i felt during the documentary...so raw, direct and cold. Every life disposable, meat running towards gunfire, ready to be torn apart, torn into pieces. I've never felt something similar in a movie theater or any movie before.

I saw this upon its release & it really is the greatest documentary ever made; not just from the subject matter, but from a technical standpoint.
On a personal level it really resonates with me, because my great grandfather was killed in action three weeks before the war ended. His body was never recovered & he left a widow & a young son to grow up without a father.
When watching this footage, I often think wonder if one of those British soldiers could be my great grandfather.
War is where the young and stupid are tricked by the old and bitter into killing each other
I just can't stop looking at this trailer.
Same bro ;)
Me too
Sauron Baggins same
I agree with you. This is the 20th time when I watch this trailer.
They shall never be forgotten.
And never grow old
The video is mostly British, Americans and Germans. the rest are forgotten.
GigawingsVideo the movie follows majority British soldiers yes but the reason behind that is because peter Jackson was asked by a british museum to make a quick documentary with archived footage but once Jackson started he simply couldn’t stop. He went through tons of footage archived by the British so that is why it’s majority British soldiers
Nessie Andrew who?
They already are forgotten. They died for nothing.
There are times in ones life where his soul is down. Stoicism is a good practice but I find myself coming after years back to this, it's like a tribute to them and hope for light. Rooting for your journey and mine.
A tear in my eye, every single time I watch it.
1:15 Peter Jackson in the post credit scene said 90% of these men died within the next 30 minutes after they were ordered to charge over the embankment. Really harrowing stuff. It's the last moments they were alive.
Hi, Neighbor! Yeah, the grim look in one guys eyes, kind of haunting.
Tom Elliott could you point out who he is? I’m actually very curious
:(
At 1.15 and 1.50 are the same men. 2 Companies of the Lancashire Fusiliers on 1 July 1916. They have tunnelled into a sunken lane half way between the British and German front lines. So they are already in no mans land. When the British attack they are closer to the German and suffer appalling casualties. The large explosion in the film was supposed to have destroyed German defences on their right flank.
@agam yudhistira Amen.
“Alright boys, here it comes... We’re in the pictures!” *laughing commences*
That part alone made me tear up.
Also take note of the guy trying not to smile right next to him and was looking at him like, “Would you shut up?” lol
[Edit]: Wow, thanks for the likes!
Alpha Crusaders Same. That line humanized it, I can’t imagine the emotions the producers went through whilst putting this together. I would have had sleepless nights after splicing something like that. My grandfather was in this war, Army Infantry. He came home shortly after it was over and cattle ranched in South Texas.
Hoping I get to see this. This trailer is easily one of the moving I’ve ever watched.
Made me emotional as well.
They had no idea what was ahead of them. The light in their eyes gets me.
Those faces are now indelibly etched into my mind, the smiles even though there was Hell all around them.
I was misty eyed pretty much the whole trailer. Very moving. I definitely want to see this on the big screen, and I will definitely be bringing along an old school handkerchief to dab my eyes.
The Making of this Movie is so profound. In all that misery, they were so cheerful. Thank you, Peter Jackson for this labor of love.
A 'safe place' to the kids today has a WHOLE different meaning than it did back then.
It is so amazing... I am from Russia and my great grandfather fought in World War 1. Thank you Peter Jackson for your respect to all these people. The footage looks magnificent. I was shocked when I saw your documentary. Your movie must have an Oscar as it is astonishing and capturing
He'll never see your comment
I totally agree with you, man. I don't really know if any of my ancestors fought during WW1, but this movie is stunningly awesome. I started loving it since the first seconds of the trailer.
_also it deserves an oscar._
Love you comment Brother!!!!🥰🥰🥰
It was made for people who cares if director sees comments?
mary shaffer ^^*
_And the Oscar for best documentary goes to..._
Sorry white helmets

Well, who takes Oscars seriously nowadays? Lol
My Great Grandfather was there with the 1st Field Arty Brigade, 1st Division AIF ... an Artillery Driver. The men on Horses pulling the Gun Limbers with Crates - that was his job. They
hauled, Guns and Artillery Shells to and from the lines as well as Ammunition. He was already a Gallipoli Veteran by this time and survived the War returning home by ship post 1918. I would not be typing this unless he survived the War ...
Imagine going through this as a 15 year old kid. It's unimaginable. This film had me in tears...
And the director of the year is PETER JACKSON
Thacarshee Who was the cinematographer, they deserve a award!

Thank you Sir Peter and the whole team that worked on the amazing project.
Really with Peter Jackson would do a mini series on the entire WW1 and transform all the footage that had been captured. What a masterpiece that would be!!!!!!!!!!
I don't know why, but I find this to be one of the most emotional trailers ever made.
Same here. Looking at the past and seeing real young men that experienced that and did what they did is so moving.
I was completely stunned by the trailer, and I come back here from time to time to watch it again. The movie itself was also amazing... Too bad it did not have wide cinema release.
@@lucifernebulae agreed, it was amazing.
I find it offensive from the Academy Awards that this picture was not at least nominated for the best Documentary this year. Really disappointing.
alex4ucj it was not eligible for the nominations because it missed the deadlines for submission. Jesus Christ people inform yourself first before writing nonsense only to get recognition. The documentary will most likely be nominated next year.
@@i-deni-i5138 Such a lame excuse, for us to get bureaucratic and inhumane, basically you're telling me that if only the bad pictures will submit for Academy and the goods one don't, it will turn into a Golden Raspberry Awards? Nobel prize for example finds you because of your accomplishments. Same rule should apply to the Academy.
alex4ucj what part of my response you didn’t understand? ..it will be nominated next year because the academy recognizes great movies. It just missed the deadlines for submission and that’s it. Understood? I get that they could pick nominees by themselves instead of asking for submissions. But that doesn’t make then in any way inhumane.
@@alex4ucj What part of "IT WILL LIKELY BE NOMINATED NEXT YEAR" did you not comprehend? Good god, you're dense with all of that fucking sentimentality. I doubt any of these boys care if the documentary they're in gets nominated in a little award show. They had more pressing concerns at the time, surely.
Jonathan Parks well to be fair not every documentary/film can be nominated.. there’s just 5 nominations for documentary out of possibly hundred of submissions :)
This movie was powerful. I watched it five days ago and still think about it.
Check out Dan Carlin’s hardcore history podcast on WW1 : blueprints for Armageddon. He really puts you in their shoes, it changed my life honestly.
R.I.P lads 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧 and thanks
I have always hated colorized B&W reels. It has to do with the choice of color being so unrealistic, as well as the light/shadow not used effectively. This, however, was done amazingly. That, giving the films the proper speed, and discovering what was spoken in these films and voiced by men with the same regional accents was a wonderful extra step that could have just as easily been considered superfluous.
At 62 years old a lot of what I grew up with were ww1. And ww2 vets.
One we called cap.
He would sit and fish all day .
Had more patience than anyone I have ever known
My uncle Homer was a ww2 vet he taught me a lot about living and I miss the days on the farm late in the evening sitting g under the Chestnut trees just hanging out with these guys that done the deed .
Bruce Strong GOD bless you and your folks, sir. The good old days.
The way this footage was brought to life is absolutely ground breaking. Would love to see this done a lot more. Truly stunning movie to watch
This is one of the best pieces of documentary ever made. Halfway through watching it i forgot that I was watching footage from 100 years ago, it connects you with the people who were there in ways i never thought possible. how amazing
The silent footage is at 14 frames per second. Jackson's team used new computer software to seemlessly add 10 more frames to each second.
It's called "interpolation", and many household TV's already do it in real-time while watching TV. If your TV is advertised to be 120 Hz or higher, it does it with what you watch already (unless you've disabled that feature). However, it's much easier when you have higher frame rates (24+). Jackson is doing it with only 14 frames per second, which is much more difficult to interpolate. This footage looks incredible. Can't wait to see it.
@@OUTFOXEM Interpolation ruins most 24 FPS films if it's forcing it up to 60 or something, but man this looks beautiful. Glad Peter had the passion for something like this.
Actually, it was variable frame rate, because the speed of the recording depended on the speed of the cameraman turning the film pulley.
10 fake frames...
@Thane Mac Yes! I'm not a native English speaker and I haven't yet heard how that's called.
People really sleep on WWI the first modern war. The war that literally shapes the world we live in today. WWII was just the unfinished business of WWI.
Hitler was Austrian too. Born in Braunau . They destroyed his birthhouse a few year ago i think.
although austria started the war, the germans were the ones that escalated it significantly, and were probably the more seen army on the battlefield by most of the entente
@Sterling Thomas fair point, but in reality they all started it. WW1 was birthed from the long-standing tensions between the major European powers, the Austro-Hungarian empire with the angry ethnic peoples, the Ottoman Empire doing basically anything, Germany want more territory and colonies, Britain wanting it's Naval strength secured, etc. It was just Austria-Hungary and Serbia that lit the match and set the flame.
The Wars of unification were probably the first modern wars. And too, the war between a Russia and Japan.
@@onetruth37 The war was pretty much unavoidable and was always going to break out sooner or later. When you consider the unprecedented arms race the years before, the ever escalating suspicion and paranoia between the nations and the fact the Central Powers had formed in 1879 already and the Entente in 1904 it becomes clear everything was already in place for a large conflict.
The First Moroccan Crisis in 1905 nearly escalated into war between Germany and France. Then came the Casablanca Crisis of 1908 and the 1911 Agadir Crisis in which German war ships were sent to show that the Kaiser meant business.
In a version of history in which there never had been an assassination of the Austrian archduke the war would still break out for some other crisis as tensions was growing higher and higher the years prior to 1914.
And to all those narrowminded and ill-informed ignoramuses who still believe the war was fought over the austrian archduke and that you can scapegoat one single man for the entire conflict I say this: You're idiots. Plain and simple.
just finished watching. this film should be shown in history class.
I saw this when it first came out in theaters and I am glad to have seen it on the big screen -- amazing work to have restored and forever preserved this footage from a monumental time in history. Well done!
2:13 For some reason I always tear up when he says, “There was a job to be done, and you just got on and did it!”
A real man there.
Me too, it's quite an emotional quote.
it's a piece of shit moment that brings down the entire experience of this trailer and project. There was no job to be done and it has nothing to do with ''manliness''. It is perpetuating evil made up by scum of the earth
@@PlaguePriest88 I agree it shouldn't of been a "job" it was just the stupidity of sacrificing so many innocent lives amongst the violence
So do I. I don't know why. Maybe it's the way he says it.
I cry every time, man.
It's how people used to be raised back then. Something that's sorely missed in our world.
You know, I haven’t seen this film yet. But it’s on my wishlist. This trailer is amazing and what really sticks out to me is at 1:52, that soldier who is wounded on the stretcher. Even though he is injured, he still has the spirit to smile and wave at the camera. These boys were so strong.
Color = Emotions
Sound = Atmosphere
Footage = History
Total = TimeTravel
My grandfather was seriously wounded with a head injury at Gallipoli & returned home a very changed man. He doted on me as a child in the 1960s and passed away in '73.
Seeing this footage, I've just cried my eyes out for ten minutes. I never cry. Never.
It's so valuable film and it will show us the real war. The whistle at the start has lots of feelings.. makes me think so much

“I gave every part of my youth to do a job.”
These young men saw the war as nothing more than a task or job they had to do, and participated without hesitation
It's called being British.
A lot of them were young and didn't know any better. By the end, some of them didn't know why they were fighting. They just wanted it to end.
@Stance Pilot We dont, but I'll tell you one thing. They sure dont care. But I do.
@Stance Pilot You're right as well. I study more of WWII, but I would love to figure out more than Lawrence of Arabia, and the Argonne Forest.
They don’t make them like they use to that’s for sure
This should be shown to every person on earth - especially school kids!
I went to the theater when it came out. If humanity only knew how this event changed the course of modern history. I got teary eyes when I was watching this. It was MARVELOUS.
I don't know if I'm the only one but does this way of seeing WWI make those people we were so used to seeing in those old fast b&w film reels seem more human? I know it sounds odd but seeing those young soldiers in colour and in normal speed somehow humanises them and makes me realise that these were real people. Seeing them in those old b&w films all sped up just didn't tug at the heart like these clips do. Does this make sense to anyone else??
Exactly the feeling I had watching it!
I third that. Gave me chills.
That's the point of modifying these films like this to increase verisimilitude. It makes them more emotionally engaging by looking more like real life. There's a lot more impact seeing something in clear clarity. The more degraded the image, the less we recognize the reality of it. Compare a black and white used rental VHS videotape to IMAX. One can show you what it looks like to fly, the other could have the same shot but it just doesn't register emotionally as reality and so almost might as well be a cartoon.
That's the whole point.
yeah the speed makes it almost comical to watch and the black and white just doesn’t give you the same sense of reality
I don't cry, but I'm not ashamed to admit that this trailer brought tears to my eyes. Each and every person in this footage was real. Each one with hopes, and dreams, and families and fears. Each one risking everything for one another, just trying to get themselves, and their fellows home. May we in modern times not forget the lessons of the past, and may the memories and sacrifices of each and every one of these brave men never, ever, grow old.
Unfortunately I'm ashamed to admit that it's in human nature to forget. When will we all start to remember that the concept of war is wrong? Won't we ever learn from our mistakes??? 😢😢😢
Amen.
"may we never forget.."
yet here we are.. rushing headlong again to that very end : /
Don't forget, The War that will end all War. Yea, it was senseless, over a royal Austrian royal life, AND its political upheaval of each European nation. That is the sad part, people slaughtered, INNOCENT slaughtered. That is why this movie is a needed must to watch it captures the pointless and stupidity of war.
What an odd way to open a statement. Why would anyone feel *ashamed* to admit to crying? I feel ashamed for some of the shitty things ive done in my life, but for expressing raw emotion? It sucks what people are made to feel bad about. Never feel ashamed for being a human connecting to the suffering of others. Fuck anyone who belittles you for expressin yourself.
Imagine explaining to them how those pictures would one day have sound, then color, then be able to be seen on a box at home, then be seen on a flat disc, explain what a phone is and then tell them watch "the pictures" on those things now..
I'm a soldier, I'm 23, I've been serving for 3 years now. Each ANZAC day I look back and each time I get to see that boys younger than me that,
Gave their youth, their bodies, their spirits, and their lives.
They gave their today, so we could have our tomorrow, all that is asked of us is to remember them.
Merc Scar too bad they fought for the wrong side, nevertheless absolutely brave and inspiring men who we must honor

Im 21 and in the service for only 7 months. About to be attached to an infantry Bn as a combat medic. Trainee days over, Worried about the tough times ahead.
sorry pal, but they fought for really nothing, anyway WWI made this world even worse place
Difference between them and you is, they fought for freedom and their country. You're fighting for the whims and fancies of a bunch of fucking cowboys. Yeehaaaw
@@daniellord1916 They fought for one autocratic empire against another. They were all fighting for a few wealthy people who were mostly born into their power and privilege and regarded world realpolitik and war as a great game to indulge in. There was no social security or welfare state, unions had to fight for recognition, no universal suffrage, Russia still had serfs for god's sake. Everyone thought they'd be home for Christmas. The reality of the carnage that followed did eventually sink home as even they lost sons, but modern warfare had not been expected by armies that still looked Napoleonic in everything but the arms they carried. I'll agree with your second half. But don't confuse WW1 and WW2, which did have something worth fighting for.
My great Grandpa and great Uncle served in WW1. My Uncle left home with jet black hair and when he returned it was snow white from the stress. Incredible what those guys went through and I wish there was more excellent movies and documentaries capturing that.
My Grand grand Father had the same experience, he fought in the Italian Invasion of Abyssinia, and my GF told me that he came back with a full grey hair, two years earlier he had a full back hair
I'll always remember he the theater experience! All ages and creeds; youth to mid 90's watching history presented and respected--and in complete awe and silence. I have not once experienced a theater presentation where not one soul spoke or risked interrupting what we were all viewing until this documentary! WE ALL stayed for the post-viewing presentation, I believe the only comments we had were " WOOWW!". My buddy and I went to see this after completing Battlefiedl 1's heartfelt campaign, and on the drive to a local grub spot and all the way up when we sat down with our food we were completely speechless.
MUST SEE viewing here. Absolutely MUST SEE.
What a brilliant piece of work from Peter Jackson & Co. Such dedication. Very moving. This film will not grow old.
I can't wait until this becomes the norm for documentaries and the whole world becomes students of history.
