Has anyone here ever watched the HBO Original film "When Trumpets Fade"? I think it was the only one which featured the Schlacht im Hürtgenwald (Battle of Hürtgen Forest)...

Yeah i have seen it. Very sad movie

Have found another movie:

- The Fallen (2004)

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0382721/ [nofollow]

Tells the story about german, italian and american soldiers during the battle in italy. I liked the most, that the is told  from both enemy sides. Worth to watch

Gentlemen, you have overlooked a classic. The Battle of Britain! one of the few movies that shows the Germans as the humane people they really are. The great things that people can learn from movies, while far from reality, is that the soldiers from Germany were no different than anyone else. Fighting for their country and their leadership and its motives.

I think Valkyrie and Downfall are good movies (Downfall is actually great) and tell a story when paired together.

I haven't watched this, but All Quiet on the Western Front is supposed to be a good WWI movie.

Das Boot is a great movie.  By the end you see just how Hellish WWII submarines were.

Grenade Fail!  :D :D

Anyway, I don't know this movie.

Reading the comments on YT page seems it called "1941 year", but I'm not sure.

PS: 2:56 HT's driver didn't saw nothing strange in the grass?  ;D ::)

Finally they use tank mockups that almost look similar to real german WWII tanks.

Anyone russian in this forum can tell the english title of the movie?

PS: hot chick in the second video  ;D

Saw several clips of this movie. What i really like are the authentic weapons used. Guns, tanks, plains look really original. But the bad acting and music (sounds like a B-movie) ruins much.

I guess this was Chuck Norris' goat. it had escaped by killing 100.000 elite guardians. This goat is the most dangerous being on entire Eastern Front during year 1941  >:(
