All This and World War II

“The memories. The movies. The stars. The planes. The janes. The blitz.”

1976 · 1 h 28 min
Directed by Susan Winslow · UK · British Cinema

Cast

The Bee Gees Milton Berle Humphrey Bogart William C. Bullitt Neville Chamberlain Winston Churchill

Plot

Peter Gabriel is among the rockstars performing the music of Lennon and McCartney against a montage of World War II newsreel footage.

Sinekatalog’s take

Beatles songs covered by rock artists play over wartime newsreels in a bold if jarring experiment. The pairing sometimes feels glib, but the sheer oddity of the concept makes it a fascinating pop-culture time capsule.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
