Movie Reviews of The Life and Death of Colonel Blimp - Criterion Collection
Movie Review: Life and Loss with the Colonel
Summary: 5 Stars
This movie cost Powell his knighthood. The British government wanted a very different movie for the war and they never forgave Powell. It took guts to make it at the time, but only a real artist could have made it as good as it is. Watch for the conclusion, when Powell puts on film the most beautiful and least obtrusive metaphor ever done, and makes it look like a throwaway. The miracle is that Powell took something unsubtle and crass - the Col. Blimp cartoon character - and made it poignant. This isn't a pro-war story, or a military satire, or a romance. It's about personal loss.
