あらすじ・解説
Watching the war movies that made us shape up and stop shilly-shallying, with authors Rob Hutton and Duncan Weldon. This time: “This is not a gentleman’s war…” With historian Alex von Tunzelmann of Paper Cuts podcast fame, we watch a film regarded by some as the finest British movie ever made, Powell & Pressburger’s epic, moving The Life and Death of Colonel Blimp from 1943. Made during the actual war, denounced for humanising Germans (but did it?) and hated by Churchill, this tale of ageing, the price of war, love and what it means to be English gradually makes its way to classic status – thanks in part to Martin Scorsese, no less. Will our upper lips remain stiff? Listen and find out. Written and presented by Rob Hutton and Duncan Weldon. Audio production by Simon Williams. Art by Jim Parrett. Group Editor: Andrew Harrison.
