WW2 movie night - 400 min.

This weekend I went to a friend to have a WW2 movie night. He is fascinated with the war and suggested we watch the excellent 3-film miniseries. We did and I was highly impressed. Next we watched a Russian movie about the german siege on a Brest fortress. Impressive too. Felt like Saving Private Ryan but from a Russion point of view. Conclusion: like Edwin Starr already sung: War, what is it good for? Absolutely nothing.
