Film 2 "Culloden" BBF No. 50

They've created a desert and have called it "peace"

1964 Peter Watkins
A made for TV film about the Battle of Culloden, the last battle to take place on British soil in 1746.
It was shot and narated as if TV cameras were present at the event. A strange viewing experience, starting this list I knew it would be different from the IMDB list, but this wouldn't have been on the radar. It's a British classic masterpiece that I wasn't expecting. the John Snow character behind the stone wall is great. I can see lots of inspiration for early Python and Pete and Dud material.
And I learnt a bit of history.
Find it, watch it.
