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!!!

)

I guess I'm a fan of each of the movies listed here. Michael Caine and Omar Sharif make unconvincing Germans, but I really liked "The Last Valley" anyway.

Jerzy Hoffman filmed Seinkowicz' trilogy backwards, first "Col. Wolodyjowski" and then "The Deluge" and finally "With Fire and Sword." Daniel Olbrychski appears in each film (as Tujai Bey's son, as the noble knight Kmcic, and as Tujai Bey). Bogdan Stupka made a very good Khmelnitsky (and later played Taras Bulba).

"1612" was good, if Russian propaganda, and better, I think, than the remake of "Taras Bulba" that came out a year or so ago.

My deepest sympathy Senefelder.

I still did not see The Last Valley Film. The 30 Years War practically began with second defenestration of Prague and the country is full of this history. I am looking forward to watch it. The sample you linked is interesting
Regards
Martin
