Synopsis:

The immediacy of the visual image, plus film and television's ostensible ability to take viewers back into the past, confers a sense of veracity on powerful historical films. This collection of essays examines the effect of film and television on perceptions of the Second World War and history.

Review: [An] outstanding contribution to the study of interrelationships between historical events and films that deal with those events....Every article is thought-provoking, thoroughly researched, and engaging; many contain information that is not generally known; all invite reassessment of media perspectives on the war.
