Brilliant piece, and really enjoyed your perspective on the mechanized slaughter of WWI—it doesn't get near enough consideration, given what it represented and what it was to bring.

I thought 35mm film had about the same effective resolution as a 1080p HD digital camera?

Never mind, I'm wrong. 35mm is actually more comparable to 4K resolution (it's been estimated at about 5600 x 3620), although you need to be not too far away from a big enough screen to notice the difference between 4K and 1080p anyway...

Interesting.

Great minds think alike. I briefly tackled this recently, but from the angle of language & authenticity rather than apparel.
