Bit of a long shot - but does anyone know who owns the rights to this? Hoping to possibly use it in a programme thats inproduction at the moment and getting nowhere trying to track down who has the rights to this!

What a marvelous way to explain in a few minutes the whole social, political and military history of a period that few of us know anything about! A viewer could probably learn more from watching these cartoons than listening to a documentary or even reading a book. Besides, the animations are very entertaining! If this is a childish POV, I apologize in advance to my better educated critics.
I think to create soon an video on the Crimee’s War between the Allied France-the UK vs Russia because like usually I see here more idiotic vanity by unscholar & suckers fanatics English who dont know the truth but only their eternal perfidious & untrue propaganda & liers to give them the only glory...
In 1st Ok no problems for this charge and the nice sacrifice of the English Light Cavalry
BUT it was pratically the only great action of the Brit Army during this war...
The Crimee’s War is an important war in the History
It mark the 1st Modern War by the use for the first time of modern weapons and much more fatal than in the past : Automatic guns, machins-guns, explosive balls drawn by the “canons”, etc..
In this time again like in the time of the Napoleonic age, the only true force of the UK especially in front of the others big European powers was its Navy
But Its Army was not enough strong to support alone a war vs another European great power, vs Russia so in this Crimee’s War
& of course on the ground it was the French Army who supported pratically all the efforts for the Allied side : Numbers of soldiers, numbers of guns, number of battles vs the Russians
& it was in true the French Armies who saved more times the Brit Armies in bad situation vs the Russian Armies
The majority of the great battles during this war were supported & won by France !!
& so you see here a perfect example again & again of the untrue English propaganda always very strong to take one act even little to increase it to do believe that they were the only glory in one war, by books or even movies like this
BUT the true winner of the Crimée’s War is France
France thanks to this victory won on the ground by the French alone pratically, after its defeat in 1815 vs all the European kings united vs it, take again its important & true place in the European continental geopolitic : The 1st
Louis Bonaparte then president of the French Republic, benefitted from this new victory of the French Armies after that of the 1st Empire, to create the second French Empire and to become Napoleon III after that of his famous uncle Napoleon 1st in 1804...
@cumbas You're such a typical dumb arse chip on shoulder pillock. Do not dare down play the role of the thousands of British soldiers and Sailors that took the heights of Alma (A FRENCH officer after the battle proclaimed that 'only the British could have done it'), took on thrice their number at Balaklava and Inkerman and then died by their thousands of disease and cold at the gates of Sevastopol. You also miss the point of this entire video, its PUNCH propaganda depicted from 1854!
@Talbot6832 You're right, that is the point: the movie itself is depicting jingoist propaganda and the feelings of the british masses living in 1854, by using sketches and cartoons that were very common at that time on the british press. The bear, the lion, the turkey... Browse on Google: " cartoonstock + congress + berlin "... and you'll see almost the same images. Ciao ciao from Italy.
@cumbas Watch the film and understand the context of this video before you come here and attempt to chest thump for France at the expense of Britain. Wanker.
@cumbas Ce n'est pas le film en soi qui fait de la propagande. Au fait, le metteur en scène a voulu utiliser des images tout à fait réalistes de ces années pour transmettre le climat de "jingoism" (soit le nationalisme anglais de cette période) et de russophobie. Ce genre de bandes dessinées et de caricatures étaient très populaires à l'époque sur la presse anglaise (celle-ci oui, elle devait faire nécessairement de la propagande). Des exemples sur google: cartoonstock + berlin + congress. Ciao!
I love this movie to death. But Ive always felt that the part (6:07 in this clip) with the big-head charicatures of John Geilgud & co. & the feuding Lucan & Cardigan goes too far. Its too silly & crosses the line from satire into outright comedy.
I see where you are coming from but I think it highlights the stupidity of the two commanders. In the book the film is based on, Cecil spends alot of time explaining the journey and i guess they had to condense it into a film.
As I said elsewhere, these animated Punch cartoons are very striking. I like the way the British Lion comes on as a Victorian bare knuckle fighter and punches the Russian bear on the nose. The sequence of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert eating a cake in the form of St Basil's Cathedral is good. Then after all these cartoon humiliations of Tsar Nicholas I (who died during the Crimean War) the audience is brought back to the horrific reality of war by a cannon shot.

The incident at Balaklava was a mistake but it won the British cavalry immortal fame.

Of course thats no substitute for the waste of human life but to be honest I'd rather celebrate their gallant charge and the sacrafice they made.
