Excellent film depicting the final moments of Napoleon's Career - his defeat at the Battle of Waterloo An all-star cast of great actors, including Rod Steiger as Napoleon, Christopher plummer as Wellington, Dan O'Herlihy as Marshall Ney, and Orson Welles as King Louis
@merdiolu I completly agree with you... I was just saying that the arrival of the prussian was the decisive element that made the allied victory... But yes, the defence of wellington was brilliant, probably the best of europe... In fact I think this battle is very interesting cause you have the best attack (france) against the best defence of europe (UK)...

@Rostokouban and when you come upon unprepared flank of an army which busy of attacking another army it is hard to lose...Anglo-Dutch stand on Waterloo for nine hours put the victory on a silver plate for ALLIES and made Prussian attack a success...otherwise even Scharnhorst did not give Prussian Army much chance. "If Wellington do not stand none of us will ever see Berlin" he said. They were badly mauled in Ligny two days ago by just one part of French Army....

@MrConph123123123 man, when you are tired of a hard day of battle against the brits, and you got 30 000 fresh men coming on your flank and on your rear, it's impossible to win... so this element (the arrival of the prussians) made the defeat of napoleon...

i hate how people say that napoleon only lost because of prussia's aid. pfffff, yeah after napoleon kicking prussia's ass 3 freaking times I'm pretty sure they were a big factor in this battle. lol if britain never participated in this war waterloo would be another typical french victory.

Its a shame that the Prussian army was undergoing further reforms, or they might've been able to beat Napoleon at Ligny, Blucher and Gneisenau were a lethal combo.
