They Shall Not Grow Old

An almost perfect way to show the horrors of WW1. No actors, no cgi, no perfectly planned story with a message, no manipulative score, no sugar coating or exaggeration, just real veteran interviews and beautifully restored footage. The way the interviews and footage are edited is fantastic and seamless. The sound design is immersive and blends perfectly with the footage. My only problem is that sometimes they have actors voice over silent footage of people talking. I would’ve preferred if they’d only added sound effects. Nothing like the movies Jackson made prior to this, but a welcome addition to his filmography nonetheless.
