A satirical, large-scale telling of the disastrous cavalry charge in the Crimean War.

Sinekatalog’s take

Tony Richardson's epic, with Trevor Howard, John Gielgud and Vanessa Redgrave, is bitter and stylish, with Richard Williams's animation.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
