Forgotten Men (1934)

[fjones71]

I found this film years ago I have not seen this movie on youtube or anywhere else. (I could be wrong about youtube, I did do a search and nothing came up about this film.) This is a great movie about the "Great War", with footage never seen before in any Great War movie. If you like watching real live film footage of battle scenes, mixed with interviews of veterans who were actually there fighting, I recommend this movie. The movie was a last ditch effort to try and keep another great war from happening. Although the film was made in 1934, the count down to World War 2 had already started. There is a couple graphic scenes in the movie that stick in my mind, one scene of a live camera man being shot and killed with the camera still on. You can see the shot that killed him, as the camera drops to the ground. Another scene shows a huge blast completely atomizing a soldier. A very rare movie as I stated, but with worth checking out if you are a serious Great War fan.
