Battle of Britain (1969) - Great war film with all star cast - Battle of Britain review by OL

Spoiler Alert
14/06/2020

This Battle of Britain has the most accurate time line. Made before CGI using real ME 109s , Heinkels HE111s, Spitfires and Hurricanes No CGI. Unfortunately, this meant it lost money as on the time asVietnam. If you want large explosions and the US won the war choose a modern film, If you want realism choose this. Film consultants include Adolf Galland and Douglas Bader. Gives a real scope of the size of the battles. as well as the human losses.

An all star cast including Laurence Olivier in probably his last large film, Michael Cain, Trevor Howard, Curd Jurgens. Probably the largest list since the The Longest Day in 1962. Worth at least one watch.
