Capture of Boer Battery by British

Film Review by Dean Duncan May 27, 2015

Warning: not a real capture, after all.

The camera is in a very nice spot. Nice performances too, which means actors actually doing things, and inhabiting the costumes in which they do them. I love how we get the entire duration of the charge. I suspect the film accomplishes all of these good things more by primitive verve than by actual design, but the results are nice anyway.
