Cross of Iron

[TheGaldinon]

ww2 1939-1945

[3Deity]

So whats the name of this music? I know it was the theme of the Hitler Youth, hence it being used int he film, however it is still taught in schools all over Europe today. The English equivalent would be "Riding along on the crest of the wave" or similar!

[BasinBictory]

Qlancer,

If you ARENT anti-war, then YOU are a moron. True soldiers who do the fighting, suffering, and dying in war are often the MOST anti war!

If you still think war is glorious and wonderful after seeing your friends killed and maimed, and their families grieving beyond consolation, then I don't know what to say to you - you're a sociopath

[3Deity]

@BasinBictory Actually, I knew a guy who was ex-SAS, his uncle was in the SS, and I showed him the opening scenes of Saving Private Ryan. He sat there smiling and said "Thats was my world, and I loved it!" He wasn't joking. As he said there are 'Meat & Veg' troops but then there is the cutting edge, they are born, not made. So, what you say is true of the rank and file.

[FellowTownsman]

Some theme.

[chrisyroo]

if the song is translated they are singing about ending the war

[Multisoso92]

Great movie the name of this song are : "Steiner The Iron Cross" by Peter Thomas

[TheLastLangolier]

I wonder why anti war videos and pro war videos look the same

[shiveringman]

@TheLastLangolier

It's not about the visuals alone. The context factor comes in when you add music. This vid would look completely different with Death Metal music over it.

[shitonMOHAMMAD]

@TheLastLangolier the message is quite different. In one, the players lament at how bad war is, in the other, they praise themselves at how righteous their cause is and how the other guys are subhuman and "evil", like all these Holywood war movies coming out now (mere propaganda)

[Mesaru36nouta]

Sergeant Rolf Steiner, sir. lol, lmao.

[MrTurtlesalad]

Hitler seems to be a nice bloke even though he killed alot of jews and blacks and gays.

[qlancer]

If you are anti war, then ayou are a moron. Glory, honour, justice, victory = these are concepts born of the fires of battle. peace beatniks know nothing of honour and willnever hear the trumpts sound glorious in their name.

War of any color serves its own ends, but brings men to their greatest heights in the hours of the darkest moments.

Unless you have served, you cannot know what true comradeship is. I am proud to say I have, and I do.

[shiveringman]

@qlancer I have served, the rest is my own business o/

[larrycascolaloca]

@qlancer you are a damn kid

go wash your pants first hour off gunfight you will claiming your mom

[hejmamma]

@qlancer Let me guess, you are from the US?

[jurassicturd3]

@qlancer you like killing people? destroying lives, families and communities?

[somme36]

[teegs1972]

Hitler was a bit of a knob

LMFAO

[austealth]

@teegs1972

your a bit of a fuckwit

[toryu88]

This is on the VHS version of the movie I have, but I think the background were images, not film. I cut from red colored photographs, not war movie footage.

[magicdutchmen]

this is not the original intro.

[M1Astrays]

nice vid. does anyone know where i can get this song for free?

[poperaven]

lol this is " henschen klein " one of the oldest german kids songs

[M1Astrays]

i know but i cant find the place to download it for free

[UserUK201]

very very well done

[iainhead]

Dont get me wrong, Hitler was a bit of a knob but surely he was better than the Soviet alternative?

[UserUK201]

no the soviets were the lesser of the two evils, and they eventually meet the same fate as the fascists just in a different way.

[BrokenMinister]

This is Sam Peckinpahs movie. But of course U dont get it do U? Made in 70's this was agaist everything that hollywood wanted but Sam had the balls. Best antiwar movie ever made !

[JaguarOFcomedy]

I think I do this is not the intro form the film. Its something that he made for himself.

[JaguarOFcomedy]

But its not a pro war video and thats good war is hell as always.

[JaguarOFcomedy]

[legionsoldierthrashe]

[ICLOK]

Sound montage, great collection of clips

[RAPTORSTARSHIP]

They had Barrelium, They had Jets, They had flying discs (ufo)called Hanubie 1-2-3, the U.S. has them now, with Tesla they are far advanced from the rest of the world, TR-3astra, TR-3Boomarang, and the most impressive the TR-3Chameleon, Plasma Adaptive camofladge.

[pamperjet]

A Russian movie called "Come and See" made in 1985 is THE film to watch concerning the Eastern Front.

[validoc]

Can anyone recommend any other half decent films from the eastern front or even the german aspect, i've seen this, stalingrad, downfall and das boot but little else.

[hawklord64]

Even more terrifying than a coffee in Baghdad!!!?.

[RAPTORSTARSHIP]

:)Yep

[RamblingReynolds]

possibly one of the most horrific movies i have ever seen... this is more terrifying than anything

[SpecialK234]

Cool, thanks.

Where could I find the song?

[shiveringman]

hmmm ?? thats a good question ?

you could record it from here if you have sound forge or other software i guess ? just record it straight from the player. Other than that i dont know where you'd get it ?

[aka99]

i think the song you hear in the video with the trumpets were made extra for this movie. the origin song is called "Hänschen klein" but it has no trumpets etc in origin, im pretty sure.

[SpecialK234]

what is the url of this archive site?

[shiveringman]

url is in the video info/description details

[demirpla]

Cross Of Iron was the title of a Sam Peckinpah movie and a very good one if I may say so. The music is taken from the movie, that is obvious, but I don't remember these scenes were in the movie, though... Were they?

Thanks anyway.

[shiveringman]

yes the music is from 'Cross of Iron' movie

but these scenes were compiled from an archive website
