I have just seen it. Great stuff. But "1612" doesn't stay behind.
Do you guys agree ?

Yes Fernando, I do agree.

I'll add this one to the list as my father just died this past Sunday and he was the one who introduced me to this move over 20 years ago. 1971's " The Last Valley " http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0065969/ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IOhEDvf1ZmU Its not so much the equipment or the like in this film, something about it captured the feeling of depair that I always thought must have enveloped The 30 Years War as it dragged on and on and on.

Nanado, thanks very much. I checked Amazon and it is avaliable used for very cheap however I don't know if it is your region/format. If you can find it i'd like to know what you think, its always been the " feel " of this particular film for me, the atmosphere of despair and bleakness thats worked for me.

My condolences as well for your father's passing, A Senefelder. I lost my father-in-law several months ago and its been very hard on my family.

Haven't seen "With Sword and Fire" yet to compare, but I will. I'll also keep a look out for this movie after the holidays (when money is not so scarce-i.e. two teen daughters!!!

)
