• An amazing film. I have seen a 1h24 version, which is cut (you might say shot)to pieces, and it is like a Western European person's understanding of that part of the war - seen as though far away. You can't even tell the uniforms apart, which makes it all the more moving. You have no idea who is friend or foe. This is Europe tearing itself apart. And it's incomprehensible. All that's left is the terrible human (and equine - they did this on foot and on horseback) cost.

    Knowing that Yougoslavia recently went through all this again makes it even more tragic.

    The music is fabulous too.

    I think I shall try to find a full 2 hour Yougoslave version.
