Digitally remastered WWI footage makes the distant past viscerally present — you watch soldiers move like real humans and realize they were not abstractions but people exactly like you and me, just born into a different century. The shock isn't the violence; it's the recognition that nothing fundamental separates a 1917 soldier from a 2023 viewer. Distance in time disguises identity in the present.
