Enemy at the Gates (DVD)
Source: Jean-Jacques Annaud, director
- A magnificent modern WWII movie! A Russian sharpshooter (Jude Law) and a German sharpshooter (Ed Harris) duel at the Battle of Stanlingrad. This movie is extremely well made. It provides honest historical context -- showing the brutality of the communists as well as the Nazis -- and rivots you with a good story. (2001)

The Patriot with Mel Gibson
