We Were Soldiers. Again.

Is that the sequel? [;)]

No. It was just me trying to say that the movie We Were Soldiers might be the war movie I've seen the most. It could be tied with Gettysburg.

Thanks for reminding me. Time for me to watch it again. I think I only seen it once and that was ages ago.

Hey No problem Orm, that film and the Big Red One always are the WW2 Movies I do not mind watching over and over again. And the funny thing is I rarely like WW2 film featuring American and British stories (nothing political here) because it is always written from the "winning side" and "made for the movies". I love anything WW2 made in Eastern Europe and Asia just to get a different point of view.

Actually now that I am thinking about it I am going to watch what I think is one of the best Russian WW2 films I have ever had the pleasure to watch. (not so much War but what it does to people and especially children. I am glad I bought a copy many years ago while traveling in Eastern Europe. Was a bugger to decode to play in North America though.

There was a Vandeleur (a Cavalry Officer) at Waterloo. Does anyone know if he is related to Irish Guards Vandeleur (played by Michael Caine in ABTF)

Sir John Ormsby Vandeleur (Waterloo and Peninsular War) and John Ormsby Evelyn 'JOE' Vandeleur (WW2) were from the same family: the Vandeleurs of Kilrush, County Clare, southern Ireland. Link

Inspired by this I watched it again yesterday.

While I agree it is a excellent film it feels like a sequel to me.
