The Somme 1916: Pommiers Redoubt
On the 1st July 1916 whilst many British Army Regiments attacks were turning into bloody ruin some were successful, particularly in the south. Why did this happen ? Was it skill and leadership, the training, the quality and bravery of the soldiers, luck, a successful artillery barrage or poor German performance. Most probably a bit of all these factors. This is the story of the 7th Bedfords, a Kitchener battalion in General Maxse's 18th Eastern Div. The Bedfords captured all their objectives, assisted the units on their flanks and established a new defensive line a mile beyond their objective.

Reviews
I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.
An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.
The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
