Plot
A film of Britten's composition.
Sinekatalog’s take
Derek Jarman's film of Britten's choral masterpiece weaves Wilfred Owen's war poems with images of soldiers and nurses. Tilda Swinton and Laurence Olivier appear in a solemn, powerful and reverent anti-war requiem.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
