Sinopsis:
- [fuente] Falso documental que reimagina una realidad alternativa en la que la Alemania nazi consiguió invadir y ocupar el Reino Unido durante la Segunda Guera Mundial.
Comentario personal:
- Falso documental que se presenta como la crónica de una Gran Bretaña ocupada por los nazis, todo ello envuelto en unas considerables dosis de mala uva (allí lo llaman humor británico) que ponen de vuelta y media los ideales patrióticos tan frecuentemente alardeados por los sectores conservadores, pero que no tienen el menor empacho en sumarse al carro del colaboracionismo.
En Cinefania se escribió:Dos historiadores, Andrew Mollo y Kevin Brownlow, produjeron con un presupuesto nimio (apenas 20 mil dólares), a lo largo de diez años una inusual película fantástica que se imagina qué hubiera sucedido si los alemanes hubieran invadido y ocupado Inglaterra durante la II Guerra Mundial, con una enfermera galesa que marcha a Londres y se enrola en el partido nazi.
Hal Erickson, en AllMovie Guide, escribió:Fledgling filmmaker (and future film historian) Kevin Brownlow worked in collaboration with Andrew Mollo for nearly ten years to create "It Happened Here". Shot on 16-millimeter stock in stark quasi-documentary fashion, the film is predicated on the postulation that Germany had invaded—and defeated—England in World War II. Brownlow and Mollo's vision of this nightmarish world is perfect in every detail, right down to the German road signs in rural Britain. The plotline is carried by Pauline Murray, playing a nurse who uncovers Nazi atrocities perpetrated on Polish and Russian hospital patients. Begun in 1957 when Brownlow was an 18-year-old editing apprentice, "It Happened Here" was finally completed in 1964, and released theatrically two years later.
Aquí se escribió:In "It Happened Here", Brownlow and Mollo's brilliant re-write of history, Germany has won World War II and Nazi troops occupy England. Pauline Murray, an apolitical Irish nurse, is transferred to London, where she slowly realizes the horrifying reality behind the occupation. The film is a terrifying intimation of what might have happened if the Allied effort had failed. Brownlow was only 18 and his co-director Mollo was 16, when they started this monumental documentary style drama in 1956.
The German invasion of England took place in July 1940 after the British retreat from Dunkirk. Strongly resisted at first, the German army took many months to restore order. But the resistance movement, lacking outside support, was finally crushed. Then, in 1944, the resistance movement reappeared.
After years of hard work and with the help of hundreds of volunteers, "It Happened Here" was finally completed in 1964. But when United Artists released it two years later, the studio cut seven minutes of controversial material. Milestone's is the first presentation of the complete version here in the USA.
