Description

This week we look at two of acclaimed British director Peter Watkins' formative amateur films: The Diary of an Unknown Soldier (1959) & The Forgotten Faces (1960). Perhaps best known for his later 1964 film Culloden and 1965's ground-breaking nuclear war film The War Game. These two early films are especially fascinating as you can see Watkin's distinct style develop through them.Don't forget to leave a comment/review/rating and let us know what you thought of the film via twitter @FightingOnFilm Become a member at https://plus.acast.com/s/fighting-on-film.
