Just wanted to share. It's mildly graphic at its worst. Colorized.

Happy fools.

It's great stuff but no more or less tragic than the English and French films.

Dumbest war of the 20th century.

Second dumbest (following Iraq) of the past 100 years.

The quality of colorizing is enough high as if it was color video from the beginning. But in the crowd of people the designers colored not each person.

The USA has strong influence to Germany's policy in order the events like 1914 or 1938 not to repeat.

Great footage but I have my suspicions that some (not all) of these scenes were battle re-enactments for propaganda purposes, the filming angles are strange - why would the film-maker be in front, or sometime in front and high as if on a crane, of a mass charge towards the enemy.
Couldn't figure out the scene with the flame-thrower. Looks like he was crisping up his own troops in front of him.
