There are some good movies from Europe and Asia. I have the 7 hour version of War and Peace, both the cut for TV KULTUR version and the better Russian Cinema Council widescreen version. I first saw it on TV back in 1971. Great movie that makes the Henry Fonda version look like Cliff’s Notes.

Also have WATERLOO Rod Stieger and Christopher Plummer) with battle scenes directed by Bondarchuk.
9TH Company directed by son of Bondarchuk.
Also COME AND SEE, a very brutal film (Just ignore the comment section by Sean Penn).
Also have a German version of STALINGRAD.
And ATTACK ON LENINGRAD.

A few others I have recently acquired are..
Stosstrupp 1917
Westfront 1918
Mountain in Flames.

And many more.

Goof: If you have the Russian version of War and Peace, look close at the battle of Bordino. You will see a few troops in the background with bolt action rifles.

The 1959 version of “The Bridge” is very good if you can find it.
