Well, actually I think this tank in Saving Private Ryan was pretty decent, as compared to the usual M-48 or even M-60 with black crosses painted on the turret.<br>
It was a soviet tank. Dan thinks it's a T-54/55. I still think it was a T-34. I've seen T-54/55 in Lebanon from up close, too close sometimes, and they didn't have that type of wheels.<br>
But the box-like hull of the Tiger was very well reproduced.<br>
But to go back to young, cute Leonardo there, I am extremely disappointed by Wolfgang Petersen, whose "Das Boote" is ampongst the ten best war movies ever made.<br>
I guess everybody must make a living and sign contracts that aren't always desired, especially in the movie industry....<br>
But well, Ridley Scott's first movie, The Duellists, was one of the most, if not the most historically accurate movie I saw, besides the fact that it was a unforgettable pleasure for the eyes.<br>
And then, see what happens..<br>
It's not only Gladiator, it's also Thelma and Louise, and Private Benjamin...<br>
