This film, one of the few genuine films of the
Boer war that was shot on location rather than an enactment – and which is
therefore less exciting – was filmed by a doctor called Colonel Beaver. Cronje
is escorted by City Imperial Volunteers, with whom filmmaker Robert Paul's
brothers served, so it's entirely possible that they're up there on the screen.
Cronje can only briefly be glimpsed in a carriage.
