British distributors Arrow Films have sent us a brand new trailer for the 20th anniversary Blu-ray release of Joseph Vilsmaier's film
Stalingrad (1993), starring Dominique Horwitz, Thomas Kretschmann, Sebastian Rudolph, and Dana Vávrová. Fully restored,
Stalingrad will be available for purchase on November 3rd.
Official synopsis: Set in 1943 when the Nazi Germans lost 350 000 soldiers while the Russians lost three-quarters of a million defending their city, this film follows a platoon of likeable German soldiers as they fight for every inch of the way, losing their humanity along the way. The film alternates between big battle scenes and deft characterisation as it constructs a damning indictment of war.
