Unknown WWII in Color

[Wiseguy A]

"World War ll has usually been seen in black and white, but our recent research has unearthed an abundance of superb color film that shows what it really looked like to those who were there. The Author presents mainly WW2 recently declassified and other previously unavailable material, exclusively filmed in color."

Have you seen The Life and Death of Colonel Blimp? It is a wartime film shot in colour.

Excellent film but I also enjoy the out door footage showing Britain’s streets during wartime.

There are a lot of photographs of World War One in colour, thanks to a process invented by a French photographer. Almost needless to say, this was forgotten when 'big business' took over in the 1920s and 30s. and the process (and the photographic record) was forgotten.

There are also several clips of Great War footage that were tinted or colorized. Someone did a patiently good job of it.

I saw "Colonel Blimp" a few years ago on A&E Network and the color film was a nice bonus; I even had it recorded on VHS for a while. Unfortunately A&E just doesn't show the movies or British TV series they used to.
