By far - even by today's standards - one of the best realistically depicted war movies ever made of the titanic battles on the Eastern Front during WWII ... 'Tough-arse' Sgt. Steiner, played convincingly well and true to the tone of the film's gritty aura by the late (and equally 'tough-arse') star, James Coburn, couldn't have been better-portrayed by any other leading actor - who, in the end, justified and succinctly reflected the character's trials and tribulations to the bitter end from the novel of the same name. A highly recommended viewing for all WWII afficionados of the Russian-German War. Thanks for posting!

This is not a historical scene. The film is about historical events, but they haven't tried very hard to make it authentic (the details like weapons or uniforms are more or less correct, but often misplaced). The combat is unrealistic, too (illumination rounds? really?; the Soviet infantry, who are supposed to hug the tanks are often going somewhere else; where are the NCOs?). And, on top of it all, it's a Cold War film glorifying the German Army on the eastern front.

I was wondering why there were so many jump-cuts. Then I realized, the director implemented these jump-cuts during battle so as to give the viewer a sense of "what the hell is happening?". In other words, the director wants the viewer to have the same feeling a soldier has, in battle, when so much is happening at once. Also, notice how the jump-cuts go away once the soldiers are no longer in a fight and things are relatively "calm". Then, once another battle begins, the jump-cuts return.

The answer is probably more prosaic - budget. Set up a big scene like this, all your cameras, and you can't do a retake, not on the budget of that film, so the footage you have at the end has to be used somehow. It would have taken days to film, so there's no going back - closups would have been put in at the end.
It certainly has that effect. But then again, we the audience aren’t supposed to be confused about what is happening. Its effect is indistinguishable from bad directing/editing.

Cross of Iron is frankly terrible at building characters, which makes them forget quickly and you don't even notice that they die. After all, this movie is full of heroic scenes that are stupid. Stalingrad 1993, on the other hand, shows war devoid of heroism, it focuses on the drama of war, it does not hide in showing wounds, severed limbs, screams, suicides.

Fun fact: the Russians (and some Germans!) are played by members of the Yugoslav People's Army. Care was taken to make the weapons authentic, though this wasn't possible. Hence T-34/85 instead of T-34/76, Yugoslav M-53 machine gun instead of German MG-42 (they're very similar though), Yugoslav uniforms instead of Soviet ones, American airplanes instead of Soviet ones, and finally Yugoslav TAM trucks instead of Soviet GAZ/ZIS.

Cannot verify all your claims apart from the MG-42. We still use the Yugoslav M-53 replica in the Norwegian army and when they fire it in the film a trained ear can recognize the sound of it. We call it MG-3 up here. A fantastic weapon. It looks excactly like the MG-42 only the firing rate is cut in half. It fires 17-23 rounds/sec. Double that rate for the MG-42

The film ends on rather an odd note, but was originally supposed to include an additional extra scene including an airfield. But the producer pulled the funds. Also based on the book 'The Willing Flesh' by Willi Henrich who fought on the eastern front. The film compacts the book heavily, but does a decent job. The book is most certainly worth a read; at times it's excellent.
@markbirchall82254 ай бұрын
Indeed, I started the book yesterday and can barely put it down, it fleshes out the personalities and inner conflicts of the characters so well. I believe Peckinpah was a raging alcoholic and extremely difficult to deal with and by the time we get to Steiner's "I'll show you where the Iron Crosses grow" speech with Stransky, the production was bankrupt. The entire end scene was apparently filmed in a day and involved a lot of cutting and creative editing. Powerful and very sympathetic film nonetheless. The average German landser knew the war was as nuts as the Allied soldier did, or certainly came to realise it after Stalingrad. This film still hits like a sledgehammer.

Who can think in such a crazed atmosphere? I find this a disturbingly credible portrait of battle. Smooth, clear editing has its place, and most war movies (certainly those prior to, say, 1995 or so) observe traditional methods of cutting and maintaining continuity. Peckinpah here is creating the same kind of intense chaos as he did in key scenes of "The Wild Bunch." For me, it works.

Another thing in old movies is that guys are constantly being caught by surprise be enemies coming up from behind them or the side and are easily wiped out before they can react. Experienced soldiers are rarely caught by complete surprise like that. They are also usually dug in and have to be gradually pried out of their positions. But that doesn't look as exciting and dramatic on a movie screen.

I rode to work for a couple years with a guy that was drafted and drove a tank on the Eastern Front. When he was drunk ' a almost everyday occurrence' sometimes he would talk about the war. He was telling me you never see one t-34 they come in groups. When you see a t-34 you turn around and Drive to the anti-tank guns. Ground troops would go to ground and let the t34 is Passover them. Besides the anti-tank guns they would call in stukas armed with 2 anti-tank cannons one under each wing between the stukas and the anti tank guns most of the time the t-34s or what was left of them would retreat. They then would attack the t 34 s shooting into the back of them. If this doesn't sound right to you it didn't always work and the Germans did lose the war. Paul remembers the beginning of the end was when you would call for stukas and because of Russian air superiority none would come.

The chapters in the novel, The Cross of Iron, dealing with the Soviet offensive at Krimskaya provide a more accurate description of the battle than portrayed in the movie. But the screenplay took parts of the book and mixed them up so the scenes don't follow the flow of the novel. The most terrifying parts of the book deal with the fighting outside and inside a massive factory at Novorosiysk on the Black Sea coast. This is where Steiner and his men were betrayed in the novel, quite unlike the scene in the movie. The screenplay also had issues with German ranks and the positions they held in the German Army by late-1943, the period of time that the movie attempted to depict. Thus, LT Meyer in the movie is portrayed as platoon leader when in fact he was a company commander in the novel. Captain Stransky is a company commander in the movie when he was a battalion commander in the book. Hollywood had a mirror-imaging bias. Thus, if American lieutenants were platoon leaders and captains company commanders, then this must have been the case with the Germans too. But reality isn't a perfect mirror image. In the German Army lieutenants normally led companies and captains often led battalions. I like the movie, but the novel is a work of art. If possible, read The Willing Flesh, which is the unabridged version of the Cross of Iron. An English- language version was printed in Great Britain, but copies are hard to find. I lucked out on Ebay. It's about 70 pages longer than the otherwise excellent abridged version and gives more depth to key personalities, particularly Steiner, but also Lieutenant Colonel Brandt, the regimental commander (the movie depicts him as a battalion commander--wrong again.).

It’s the foley (sound effect of gun fire etc) and Coburn’s voiceovers that date this movie the most. Until SPR it was the most authentic WWII movie made.

Liked it very much that both sides sustained horrible and not too unrealistic casualties and that even the "protagonist" soldiers make mistakes (like throwing the grenade too short). It's not the usual invincible jedi-terminators vs. stormtrooper-lemmings BS (which is only appropriate when Arnold Schwarzenegger plays in a movie, then 400:0 kill ratios are fine xD) Haven't seen any more of Cross of Iron - does it stay this balanced throughout?

+boycot gugle The reality was not very balanced at all. The Germans killed many hundreds of thousands more Russians than they themselves sustained in losses. This was mostly due to the vast gap in military structure that the Germans enjoyed throughout most of the war. Only generals Konev and Zhukov maintained any real sort of parity to German generals like Manstein and Guderian.

Commander Shepherd "Many hundreds of thousand times as many Russians than they lost themselves." Ah, right. So the Germans gloriously captured Stalingrad, losing 100 men while killing 10 million. Sorry, I had forgotten!

Tyler Chapman Yes yes, thank you. I'm well aware of that. I was just making fun of that guy above who suggested the Germans killing thousands upon thousands of times more than they lost. Right. That wasn't the case. It was in big encirclement battles (Minsk etc.) where the German high command really did an outstanding job and casualty numbers on both sides are horribly uneven. However, when looking at individual close combat scenarios like those depicted here, casualties usually approach 1:1, as suddenly force multipliers like aircraft support, weapon technology, good campaign planning etc. do not play such a major role. Zee dirty Russian can always just cut your throat when you sleep, if he ain't got no bullets xD The same was true later in the war as well, only with switched sides. On the campaign map, the Soviets may have wiped out a whole army group, but when fighting SS and Volkssturm in the cities of east Prussia, casualties can't be avoided.

One of the very rare films not having some ridiculous fighting scenes with a super heroe shooting down German soldiers like flies.
