The Best WWI Documentary I've Seen Yet— Verdun, The Battle of the Great War

Still from the Documentary

Part docudrama, this 2015 French production about the Great War's longest battle is filled with new material and information, as well as many moving and heart-wrenching sequences. It seems to use all the tricks of the documentarian's trade: colorization, CGI, drone footage of the battlefield, borrowing the most authentic footage of commercial films and official reenactments, and incorporating an amazing selections of quotes from the participants. The soundtrack and subtitles in this version are in English.

Alas, the producers of this film have objected to our embedding it on Roads to the Great War. It is, however, still available online at YouTube:
