New DVD Release: The Battle of the Somme
The Battle of the Somme DVD
An unprecedented hit with audiences upon its release in 1916, The Battle of the Somme has played an integral role in film history. In addition to pioneering the battlefield documentary genre, it was also instrumental in the development of the use of cinema as a propaganda tool, and its influence can be seen in documentary filmmaking across the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. In 2005 the film’s iconic stature was formally recognised through its addition to the UNESCO ‘Memory of the World’ register.
