@RegiaMarinaLittorio I don't a bayonet in my belly. I don't want my bollocks shot away. I want to stay in England. Dear old dear old England. And fornicate my 'blooming' life away. I thank you. Don't you just love a good old singsong. Respects 🙏.
I want to go home I want to go home I don't want to go in the trenches no more Where whizzbangs and shrapnel they whistle and roar Take me over the sea, where the alleyman can't get at me Oh.. god, i don't want to die. I want to go home Take me over the sea, where the alleyman can't get at me Oh.. god, i don't want to die. I want to go home
Its 'Oh My I don't want to die' because God doesn't rhyme with Die. Anyway, 'taking the Lord's name in vain' at the time was considered somewhat improper.
@@RomanesEuntDomus I fully agree, but the film suffered very unfair treatment, because it upset the establishment , and when release time in the USA came, it was delayed for many months, never advertised, and shown in off Main street cinemas only. This was due to all the anti Vietnam War protests there. Satire is a very effective but dangerous weapon to those in power. The VHS release of the film was very short lived, and taken out of circulation . It took 30 years for it to be released on DVD, and even then. from limited sources. Richard Attenborough could not explain this. We believe you Dickie--not.
“We’d be able to remain concealed but our damn singing gives us away” “So no more singing sir?” “And waste all that time learning four part harmony? Never!”
I read somewhere, or saw in a documentary, that this song was considered by some in the officer class to be undermining morale and should have been banned. Or that people caught singing it would be punished. But I don’t know if they ever went through with a ban.
I want to home I want to go home I don’t want to be at work no more Where coworkers and clients the whine and complain Take me back down the road Where my boss can’t get at me Oh god I don’t want to die I want to go home
I can never own a home, own a pump action 12 gauge shotgun, .22lr revolver and .22magnum Remington revolver with homemade suppressor but homeownership, yeah those owners is gonna come back, now I got swollen legs and runny nose
Not thier own grave. At he end you see they filled it and march off singing " the bells of hell go ding a ling a ling". They were burying thier own dead.
You don't know why they are digging.....Its supposed to represent the Dead after the first day of the Battle of the Somme (July 1st 1916) British and Commonwealth troops lost 20,000 dead... before dinner time. Plus another 36,000 injured. The scene continues with.. 'Right, that's the lot then' and the diggers saunter off to the tune of 'The Bells of Hell go ding-aling aling. You should watch the film... give it a whirl. Respects.
'Where Wizzbangs & Shrapnel they whistle and roar'.
bloody good lyrics, only soldiers could make that up.
„Hush, Here comes a Whizzbang.“

A truly poignant and memorable scene--from a true MASTERPIECE, of cinema.
I appreciate it more with each viewing. Dickie's first but also his best movie, imo.

The sad thing is, they are not digging a trench. It is a mass grave.

You guys know that they’re digging a mass grave right? It’s too big and the territory’s just too nice, basically they are digging their own grave,

Generations thought trench warfare was consigned to the history books, think again.
