Real aerial footage; close-ups on JU-87 and other German hardware of the period; life cycle of a Stuka pilot on the frontlines; “Death for the Fatherland is so sweet” motto;
French tanker from hell trying to humiliate captured pilots, and other assorted propaganda perks; Carl Raddatz as an archetypical Luftwaffe officer, role model for JU-87 aces like Ulrich Rudel and others.
Goebbels noted in his diary after the "Stukas" preview: "New Ritter film, 'Stukas.' Quite good, with some wonderful air footage, but a typical Ritter production. He cannot lead people. Rather too noisy."

Made in 1941 by the Crown Film Unit, FERRY PILOT was directed by PAt Jackson (of 'Western Approaches' fame) and focuses on the work of the Air Transport Auxiliary or ATA. By 1941, literally hundreds of RAF fighters and bombers needed to be flown each day between aircraft factories, maintenance depots and RAF aerodromes. This vital task was carried out by the men and women of the ATA, a civilian air force operating from their own pools and stations all over Britain. Essentially a dramatised account of typical ATA deliveries, the film features coverage of the ATA's own fleet of Ansons, as well as being notable for some excellent Spitfire film and very rare footage of the Whitley bomber, including take off and in-cockpit sequences.

A heroic drama, based upon the title novel by Yuri Bondarev. The film recounts the story of one battle of the Great Patriotic War, the battle on the Volga. The authors focus their attention on the fate of Soviet soldiers and officers in just one battery, who, at the price of heroic efforts and their own lives, did not let the enemy tanks through.Unlike the plaster, headquarters-centered description of war in the 1940s and the lyrical-romantic one in the 1960s, the war in this film had again become a people’s war, with the onscreen appearance of field wives, needless deaths, kitchens lagging behind, frostbitten scouts, vodka rations, funeral teams and such shame as Vlasov’s 2nd Shock Army, in which fought and was reported missing the son of General Bessonov, perhaps the most convincing army commander of the Soviet screen, superbly portrayed by Georgy Zhzhyonov.

On September 1, 1939 — the first day of World War II in Europe — President Franklin D. Roosevelt appealed to the warring nations to “under no circumstances undertake the bombardment from the air of civilian populations.” Just six years later, British and American Allied forces would carry out a bombing campaign of unprecedented might over Germany’s cities, claiming the lives of nearly half a million civilians. The Bombing of Germany examines the defining moments of the offensive that led the U.S. across a moral divide.

World War II changed the lives of millions of people. The threat of attack made it crucial for Britain's imports to be reduced and self-sufficiency to be pursued.
Dig For Victory was a key government campaign that urged people to cultivate their own gardens, local parks and allotments in a bid to increase food production. It was hugely successful and empowered all generations to feel that they too were 'doing their bit'.This film brings the reality of wartime gardening to life through interviews, archive footage, images and recollections from members of the Women's Land Army and many of those who helped to Dig for Victory.
