In “Apocalypse ’45,” we see images of World War II — the last six months of it, when our forces were engaged in a grisly death-throes battle with the Japanese in the Pacific — that are more colorful, raw, and deeply naturalistic than the images we’re used to seeing. And that footage hits us with the shock of the new.
I’ve often felt that way watching old war footage. Yet TV documentaries like “World War II in Colour” and Ken Burns’ “The War” have revealed World War II with far greater immediacy, and “Apocalypse ’45,” which is being released today , continues that mission, with momentous results. All of this creates a kinesthetic effect akin to that of the extraordinary restoration of World War I footage that Peter Jackson devised for his revelatory 2018 documentary “They Shall Not Grow Old.” Like that film, “Apocalypse ’45” is an immersive archival experience that never forgets the human side of war.
