Synopsis

The immediacy and apparent truth of the visual image, plus film and television's ostensible ability to propel viewers back into the past, confers a sense of veracity on the most powerful historical films. Examining the effect of film and television on perceptions of the Second World War and history is the guiding purpose of this collection of original essays.
