Fun Fact: In WW1 ships were painted in "dazzle camo." The idea was that irregular patterns made it hard to accurately tell the size, shape, and speed of a ship, thus making it harder to target. Dazzle went out of style once targeting no longer had to be calculated by hand.

『1917 命をかけた伝令』を観た。
肝心のワンカットが結構割っていたり、WW1の地獄絵図感は少し物足りなかったけど、現代でしか作れない戦争大作映画なのは確か。
主観ではなく、三人称視点のカメラワークが、何となくNHKの『タイムスクープハンター』を思い出しました。
