Overlord

Nicholas Ball

Upon hearing that he's been called up for duty, young Tom Beddows (Brian Stirner) enters army training and prepares to participate in one of World War II's biggest battles: the D-Day invasion. Director Stuart Cooper's thought-provoking drama - a meditation on one man's minuteness relative to the vastness of global conflict - seamlessly integrates authentic archival footage thanks to the expert skills of cinematographer John Alcott.—ETO History Buff
