Shot in 1975, OVERLORD is a little-seen drama about a soldier going off to fight in World War II. Director Stuart Cooper utilizes real footage from the battle itself to add a strong dose of realism to the movie.

3 stars out of 5 -- "A haunting, lyrical meditation on the futility of war....It's seamlessly spliced with archive footage of training missions and the D-Day invasion..." -- Carmen Gray , (Total Film)

4 stars out of 5 -- "[An] understated account of one young soldier's preparation for D-Day. The results are powerful, utterly authentic and deeply moving." -- Andrew Sumner , (Uncut)

4 stars out of 5 -- "[I]t seamlessly blends genuine World War II footage with a fictional cast of tommies-in-training, simultaneously creating a documentary where the characters are 'fictional,' and a war movie where the 'action is real." -- Empire Staff , (Empire)
