I just finished watching this wonderful movie today. A quick question for you...what is that German in the back of the truck saying to the column of Italians as the truck passes them without stoping. He says "Italien.." something. Anybody know? I don't know if he is speaking German or using an Italian word that I could not understand.

Jim,
the German says " ITALIANI, ORA QUI SI MUORE!"
he shouts it two times....

Thanks Lele. My computer speakers must not have been loud enough...I thought he was speaking in German :D

[Lele]

Jim,
to be honest, he speaks with a very heavy German accent and I personally had to listen it 4 times before understand it correctly....
Unfortunately the movie has no English subtitles being distributed only in Italy but if you want you can go in subtitles section "Italiano per non udenti" where you have the chance to read it in Italian ...(better than nothing :lol: )
Ciao
Lele

I got the subtitles working. I am also only able to see it on the computer DVD player.....strange.

[gbotto]

[Jim H]

Hi

I saw this movie last night at the Italian Film Festival in Melbourne and thought it was an excellant view of the despair of war.

A moving and thoughtful film

Will it work on US dvd players for computer/tv or will some alteration be needed? I've been wanting to watch this movie. Drove my cousins crazy asking if they had this movie when I was over there this summer. :lol:

I got my from Italy at http://www.dvdland.it. Ordered a few times from them, they are very good. Another point in Australia we have multi region players, I think Nth America still has tight controls on anything but region 1 players. :roll:

ITALIANI, ORA QUI SI MUORE = ITALIANS, NOW HERE WE DIE

Its a litteral translation. I don't know if a professional translater would have used a more colloquial and/or correct translation.

Best regards

Thanks......good enough for me. Would be interested in seeing the film.....but I'll need a year or 2 to learn Italian first :lol:

Hey guys,
I am not one who usually cares about hi-tech novelties. But now I see all my friends going crazy for DVDs and I don't want to stay behind, I am curious to know how to watch them on my computer (3 years old).

I had a quick search on the Net and I found out that I had to enable the DMA (Direct Memory Access) of my main CD player. I also plan to download DivX 5.0 which I am told is a very good tool for the purpose. Do I need anything else?

By the way, private emails are also welcome: gianmaria83 at bresciaonline.it

...saw the film as well now....and was really disapointed!

Ok, since I do not speak italian, I for sure have missed the dialogues. However, although obviously beeing a low budget film, some weak pooints could have been avoided easily.

> Take the openig scene: The motorcycle is following a tellegraph-line, passing some drums and a wrecked trailer. They drive AWAY from a hill. Cut. Cut. They drive on, passing the same drums & trailer again and driving TOWARDS the same hill. Poor!

> The trucks & cars are of WW2-time. But the same vew vehicles appear ever and ever again - only changing the occupants...at leas the paint of vehicles could have been changed slightly...

> The wrecks used in the film are not of WW2-origin. Especially the landrover. To give the impression of a lot of wrecked vehicles, they have been filmed ever and ever again from changig angles...

:cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:

...and the worst thing: The Germans are using an american-built Halftrack. Sorry, this type was not available in EL ALAMEIN at all!

What about this small italian truck? Has it ever been used in Africa? I do not believe so...

[sergemaster]

has anyone heard any scuttlebutt about how to get a copy of this in either DVD or VHS that can play in this country?? I am DYING to see this!!



ANOI!!
