   When was fires were started made?

   • Fires Were Started is his longest work, made in 1943. But it was not the only extraordinary film he made, for the GPO Film Unit before the last world war and for the Crown Film Unit and the Ministry Of Information during it. In other hands, many of these films would have been mere propaganda made to stiffen the national mood.

   Is fires were started a masterpiece?

   • Fires Were Started is his most celebrated film, and undoubtedly a masterpiece. Jennings was a poet and a painter too - a man, in fact, of the widest possible culture. But he saw a way of combining everything in what may seem to be the most unyeilding cinematic metier of documentary.

   Is fires were started a good movie?

   • "Fires Were Started" is a rather minor propaganda film but I mean it as a compliment, it's a great tribute to men who fought the big fight and to a director who could have given a little more and who certainly inspired the New British Wave of he 1960s with Anderson, Reisz, Schlesinger.
