enemy at the gates is a fictionalized film about Vasily Zaitsev, a highly decorated soviet sniper
in the film, he is forced to charge the nazis without a rifle
I remember reading a comprehensive takedown of the movie once, and how the actual river crossing depicted in the infamous scene was done by a well-equipped and already-veteran unit that spent days prior training for it and then crossed uncontested in the middle of the night.
Enemy at the gates was one of the most successful pieces of propaganda of this generation
literally just taking rumors about the sorry state of the Russian army in 1917 and transposing them into 1942
Can you give a brief synopsis for us non g*mers?
