Cinema: Films of Victory

“We shall record our triumphs to the final gates of Berlin and Tokyo. The series we have in mind will include such titles as ‘Victory Over Italy,’ ‘Victory Over Berlin,’ and so on.”

Thus with high confidence spoke Lieut. Colonel David MacDonald, director of the British Army’s great battle film Desert Victory (TIME, April 12). Added he: “We in the British Army Film Unit are hopeful that we may from now on cooperate more closely with the film and photographic units of the United States Army. . . .”
