The Wehrmacht officer Lt. Triebig who orders the machine gunning of Steiner's platoon, is played by Roger Fritz. Herr Fritz, 85, passed away in Germany on November 26, 2021 of a stroke. Apart from being an actor he was also an artist, a photographer and a restaurateur. RIP, Herr Fritz.

Best war movie ever because it not only tells the story on the german side but the friendship, betrayal and jealosy of the iron cross.

@White Rook You need to see the movie "Stalingrad", a stirring account of the battle & anti-war movie written, directed, and acted by Germans (there is a version in English). It was released on the 50th anniversary of the battle, and covers the experiences of a unit of young naive German soldiers throughout the battle until the remains of the 6th army surrenders. It does so without promoting or honouring anything to do with Nazism, and it does good job of reflecting the ugly violence of war, the moral conflicts with the hearts & minds of the soldiees, and the overall futility of the campaign. IMHO, it is still the best WII movie ever.

Unsung? Sam unsung? To the comments about this being pro German propaganda! Stupid is as stupid does. This is from a novel written by a German eastern front soldier. It is anti war and anti Nazi. Steiner isn't pro war ,pro Nazi , pro aristocracy, pro status quo. He was good at his job or he would DIE. HE WAS PRO STEINER. Not all German soldiers were barbarian with no moral center. Some where of course as all humans are. No excuses just factual. Steiner was a tiny cog in a machine that wanted him Dead. He used his wit to preserve his life and the men under him as long as he could. To do otherwise GUARANTEED his men's and his own demise.

Germans were trained to obey no matter what. Blind obedience. Many were shot by firing squad for even questioning orders. When the invasion of Russia started, Hitler ordered the Russian population would suffer total war, rape and murder were condoned and encouraged. One german general balked, he ignored Hitlers commands to eliminate soviet political officers and wouldnt allow his men to act less than befitting a German man. He was put into an asylum, by Hitlers personal order.

One order he would not pass on was the immediate execution of any commissars, or russian political officers. He would not allow reprisals against russian civilian population. This infuriated Hitler greatly. He was also a great believer that Germany needed a better tank to fight the T-34, he suggested to hitler that they should simply copy the russian tank. None of things endeared him with leadership. He was a maverick.
@oleopathic3 жыл бұрын
@@gregryan7761 If Guderian followed those orders I would be surprised. Hitler had the SS for this kind of work. And Gestapo also. As an officer he knew well that this would be a war crime and strongly punishable. Germany had a history of losong WW1 so it was a possibility they would lose again and Guderian would end up in court. Commissars were political soldiers and thus were sought after endlessly by the SS and in turn the SS was sought out by the commissars. See film Brest Castle for this dynamic. Civilians likewise are not the domain of an officer. So Hitler's order was voided. Hitler tried to play the armchair general but failed as many of his orders led to dire failures. Had he left the work to his generals WW2 might have ended up in Germany's favor. Still its understandable that with so many assassination attempts, many of which came from his generals, he would try to bypass them and lead the war himself. Recently read that the resources required to copy T-34 would make the effort inefficient. So they never attempted it. Also the tank suffered from malfunction and low production quality as it was mass produced with great speed.

Era pendejo cuando ví esta maravilla. Pocas veces sentí tanta angustia e impotencia. Una verdadera pesadilla. Me voló la cabeza. Primera vez en mi vida que escuchaba gritos en una pelicula de guerra. Cuando era mas chico siempre los soldados morian cayendo como saco de papas sin chistar. Esta pelicula fue diferente. La angustia de los gristos de espanto, la camara lenta que remarca todavia mas la pesadilla sin fin de la guerra es algo que marcó mi alma a fuego. Ya tengo 52 años y no creo que sienta algo igual. Todo está maravillosamente justo. Los redobles de tambores que marcan el comienza del drama. La increible edicion, los tiros de camara, las tomas desde angulos nuevos. Todo. La escena en donde el oficial se muestra comprensivo y Steiner le dice que lo desprecia. La cara huesuda, ngulosa y sufriente de James es algo increible. Podria estar horas y horas.

Instead the hacks that followed slowed down both the video and audio to produce the lame 'n....o...o....o...o...o...o' as the hero dives for the gun / knife/ bomb / whatever. Sam peckinpah, I salute you. I can see you splicing together the video and sound by hand back in the 70's suffering for your art. This was the culmination of a brilliant film that Sam peckinpah was able to pull out of his tormented head. The avenging angel, Steiner, (James Colburn) witnessed the the betrayal of his beloved squad (his surrogate children). We feel every gunshot. Both Pechinpah and Colburn are anchors in this movie.

In terms of technique, now w/computer graphics they can just speed it up and slow it down snippets at will. The slow motion will be interspersed with no sound in a scene that is mostly in regular time. For example, a motorcycle flip or a single knife wound. Eh .. .good enough I guess. Tarantino seems to like that technique but I find him a bit irritating. Peckinpah really had to labor over his editing in the 70's, no computer aids then.

@@danielallenbutler1782 honestly I do not care how you label it in order to actually rebut me, but my comment was meant to stress the fact that his claim of " typical post-war german behavior..." is nothing which can be reduced to germans only but to soldiers who committed crimes in general. adding this perspective without neglecting his point has nothing to do with a straw man. the behaviour shown is simply not typical for german soldiers only but for all.

Brilliant film but what were the chances of Steiners platoon arriving back at the front line exactly where Lt Treibic and his old unit were stationed.

@Agundis1825 You're so right. I watched the documentary Passion and Poetry and yes, he was an amazing actor. I watched this when I was like, 16? That scream is something that stays with you.

Bayoneting that bad officer at the end was probably a bit redundant, given he’d been shot about 20 times. Still.....satisfying though.

James Colburn plays an American in Combat and now he plays Steine in Cross of Iron. He could have it both ways. Cross of Iron was a better movie.

I love Sam Peckinpah, but when Germans speak English instead of English subtitles, I feel like I´m watching Hogan´s Heroes.

@coreyk8517 жыл бұрын
Like almost any re-make that is churned out of Hollywood these days, it wouldn't come close to the level of realism or intensity in Peckinpah's film, no matter how big the budget

I hate remakes, they are usually dumbed down and lose the magic that was in the original, God, take the remakes of Excalibur (King Arthur) ffs, all that were made after the 1981 movie are total crap, even though they had massive budgets.

No it wasnt sufficient budget Jules, ending was totally rushed and had to be filmed in just day and got changed totally. Those hollywood clowns would never give money to movie made from german perspective, which is sad.

Here's something to do. Think of all the classic war movies. Imagine yourself a soldier serving in an infantry rifle company. Now out of those classic characters; make up your own ideal company. As a serving soldier we did this a while back for fun. Lee Marvin would always be a company sergeant major (nobody f@@ks with Lee Marvin) company commander Richard Burton etc......
