If you like Brighton and dislike war, this is for you. It should be shown on every Armistice Day (and probably will be on some TV channel) but the DVD has extra features well worth seeing. A tad over-long in parts (as I think director Richard Attenborough said, later on) but it's a wonderful film.

One of the most entertaining anti war films, with quite a few light hearted songs that suddenly turn to the horrors of the war and give you that kicked in the stomach feeling. It also highlights the differences in the attitudes and experiences of the class system that existed at the time. This is a great film to teach history from.

Just the thing to commemorate the impending centenary end to WWI. Delighted as it was filmed in Brighton and the now derelict West Pier.

it treats war as tragic and out of the tragedy, caused by the elitist powers who like today do not care about human life, it satirises brilliantly the stupidity of all wars.
