it was partisans behind enemy lines it wasn't the battlefront of the war but it is still considered part of the Eastern Front as a whole.

War is often not pretty.
The actual Eastern front was the combat. It's the rear action stuff, on both sides, that is infamous

It's a perspective you never get. Of course you get all allied perspectives and you occasionally hear about some German dissident or the views of the Nazi high command but you never get the perspective of the German soldier.
Huh?

>but you never get the perspective of the German soldier.
that's incorrect though. sure it's rare but to suggest it never happens is not true. Heart of Iron and Das Boot are also good films about the German side of the war
Blake Russell
It was in Belarus, where the movie takes place. About 25% of the population was killed during the war.
Charles Brooks
That film is boring, even Stalker is more exciting.
Also, watch All Quiet on The Western Front.
Jordan Baker
>Heart of Iron
Cross of Iron is almost surreal in its depiction of the war. Hardly realistic.
>Das Boot
Kino, but unrelated to the trials and tribulations of your average Landser. Oh and Stalingrad is platinum shit.
Liam Harris
>Hardly realistic.
Moving goalposts. The original user suggested that WW2 films from the German perspective never happen when that's just false
>Stalingrad is platinum shit.
How do you figure?
Brandon Walker
based fuck Belarus
Nathaniel Torres
>Moving goalposts.
Not really. Cross of Iron is in the same tier as the dirty dozen in terms of how it depicts the soldiering experience for the respective sides.
>How do you figure?
in short, it feels like a movie where the writer spent maybe an hour researching the eastern front and tried to make his movie as grimdark as possible for the sake of it.
Chase Sullivan
>Not really
Yes really
>Cross of Iron is in the same tier as the dirty dozen in terms of how it depicts the soldiering experience for the respective sides.
There's very very few films that depict war accurately. Once again that wasn't the original assertion anyway, it was:
>but you never get the perspective of the German soldier.
>it feels like a movie where the writer spent maybe an hour researching the eastern front
What about it felt so inaccurate to you that it took you out of the film?

And I'm telling you that Cross of Iron isn't a good example just like the dirty dozen isn't a good example of the American soldiering perspective. It takes more than kraut uniforms and some artsy expectation subverting freezeframe ending to actually offer a glimpse into the german perspective.
>What about it felt so inaccurate to you that it took you out of the film?
It's about the feel of the film, I don't know how else to describe it. It doesn't do it for me like The Forgotten Soldier did, nor does it even begin to approach something as shit as SPR in terms of how authentic it felt.

>It's about the feel of the film, I don't know how else to describe it.
I mean we can both agree that's a pretty vague critique of an otherwise universally praised film right?
Hunter Foster
The Forgotten Soldier is proper grimdark, Stalingrad felt like a series of unfortunate events.
Yeah

That image was airbrushed. Stalin was short, narrowed shouldered, had a paralyzed arm and a pockmarked face.
