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

A chilling and thought-provoking film because it resists the clichés of Hollywood war movies, where good and evil are often clearly delineated.
The directors are serious students of the past, and their aim is re-create a fictional past.
The sound quality is a bit off, but this is a well made and arresting film about the Nazis conquering Britain.
December 2, 2010A great idea wonderfully directed. Unfortunately, the story lacks some flesh and a deeper reflexion over the consequences of this uchronia.
