| Tribunus Laticlavius | Das boot*** Kellys Heroes Where Eagles Dare Tora Tora Tora Pearl Harbor... (just kidding, its terrible). There is a very good German WWII movie, essentially a "Band of Brothers" except that its done from a German Squad perspective on the Eastern Front. I saw it once on cable, I CANNOT REMEMBER THE NAME OF IT, it's a foreign film, but its excellent. Somebody help me out here??? If you want a good Civil War Movie, 'Glory'.

| Tribunus Laticlavius | Don't listen to them...... The real enthousiast would be: 1) The Cross of Iron (absolute master movie by Sam Peckinpah) 2) Glory (nice performance by Denzel Washington) 3) Broke back Mountain (comtemporary cowboymovie, which make you re-think the images you always had of Cowboy
