1914 All Out

About This Movie

1914 All Out captures a unique moment in time—it's all about the camaraderie of a village cricket team before the harsh realities of World War I hit. The film has this bittersweet charm, you know? It’s slow-paced, letting you soak in the atmosphere of the village life and the sport that unites them. The performances feel genuine, almost intimate, as each player grapples with the gravity of their impending departure. The cricket scenes are simply filmed, but they resonate with authenticity. What’s striking is that underlying tension, that naive belief that 'it will all be over by Christmas.' It’s a reflective piece, contrasting the innocence of the game with the looming chaos of war, making it stand out among its peers.
