Watch Extensive 'A Field In England' Making-Of Footage

Last summer Ben Wheatley's film A Field in England started to see release, with a simultaneous drop in theaters, on disc, and on cable and VOD in the UK. It went on to play festivals and finally opened in the US last week. Along with the film's UK release last year was a "digital masterclass" on the making of the movie — a thirty-minute behind the scenes doc that is really terrifically detailed. This isn't fluffy filler, but rather a nuts and bolts look at making an indie movie with relatively few resources. It's fantastic stuff, but loaded with spoilers (naturally) about the film.

So now is a great time to point it out to you once more, as the film is in release pretty much everywhere at this point. Below you'll find a good deal of behind the scenes footage, and links to even more.

The first video below is the longest, running 20 minutes, and the rest fill in some significant details. Even more info is at the original digital masterclass page.

Here's the film's excellent US poster:

England during the English Civil War. A small group of deserters flee from a raging battle through an overgrown field. They are captured by two men: O'Neil and Cutler. O'Neil (Michael Smiley), an alchemist, forces the group to aid him in his search to find a hidden treasure that he believes is buried in the field. Crossing a vast mushroom circle, which provides their first meal, the group quickly descend into a chaos of arguments, fighting and paranoia, and, as it becomes clear that the treasure might be something other than gold, they slowly become victim to the terrifying energies trapped inside the field.
