The expert view: ‘It depicts what, to me, is that essential moment on the eve of battle: a great storm is coming, and the men all sense it. Strung out over a thin khaki line, the British Army is about to be battered – and this small but richly drawn platoon is at the sharpest end of it. But ‘The Duchess’ director Saul Dibbs’s adaptation – unlike the 1930 James Whale version – uses nimble camerawork and imaginative framing to expand the canvas and deliver a powerful human drama of doomed men in the subterranean world of the trenches.

A long-time interviewer of Great War veterans himself and the host of The Old Front Line podcast, he brings a unique perspective on their historical strengths – and weaknesses.įrequently revived as a stage play, RC Sherriff’s claustrophobic and nail-gnawingly tense snapshot of a British dugout on the eve of the German Spring Offensive of 1918 isn’t immediately cinematic. To rank these films is a tricky task, so we enlisted the help of military historian, author and podcaster Paul Reed to cast an expert eye over them. Maybe because they’ve wrestled with complex themes of sacrifice, trauma, justice, social hierarchy, nationhood and the nature of comradeship, and eschewed simpler heroics, films like Paths of Glory, All Quiet on the Western Front and La Grande Illusion have only grown in stature over the years.Īnd the war’s enduring place in the public consciousness has seen a new wave of Great War films, with 1917, They Shall Not Grow Old and Journey’s End, and Germany producing its biggest contribution to the canon with Netflix’s new take on All Quiet on the Western Front.

Ollie the Owl is the last project in my series of crochet patterns using the Cartoon Eyes! What colors will you use?! You can’t go wrong with the plethora of shades from Red Heart Super Saver!

Use the larger 2 inch cartoon eyes for the double strand owl and the smaller 1 inch eyes for the single strand mini owl.įor reference, the double stranded worsted weight yarn version of Ollie the Owl is still a bit smaller than the original I crocheted using Bernat Blanket Yarn. For the double strand version use the K hook and for the single strand version use the H hook. A miniature crochet owl that measures about 5.5 inches tall by 6 inches wide! ALSO I used the smaller version of the cartoon eyes for the single strand owl.įor the versions you see here in this post, I am using Red Heart Super Saver yarn in colors Perfect Pink and Shocking Pink. OR you can crochet Ollie the Owl just as the pattern is written with a single strand of Red Heart Super Saver Yarn! He turned out so small and cute. It also helps to add an extra round of SC stitches to the wings and feet. Then continue on to the head part of the pattern as written. So after Round 15 you will make 2 more rounds of SC in each stitch around. I do want to mention that I added an extra two rounds of single crochets to the body. It turned out great! Just hold to strands of yarn together and use the size K/10.5 (6.5 mm) hook as stated in the pattern. Option #2: You can crochet Ollie the Owl using worsted weight yarn! I am using a double strand of Red Heart Super Saver yarn to make all the parts (except the cartoon eyes. NOTE: Bernat Blanket O’Go is currently still available on clearance. Lots of color options as well! Shop Bernat Blanket Yarn HERE on. It is still available in 300g or 600g skeins just not in O’Go format.

Option #1: You can absolutely still use Bernat Blanket Yarn for Ollie the Owl. Fortunately we have lots of replacement yarn options and this pattern can continue to be stitched up! I am really bummed about it because Ollie was specifically created to be used with Bernat Blanket O’Go yarn.
