I have told hundreds perhaps thousands about this film since i first saw it in 1977. No one has ever seen it. Every aspect of the film; plot, characters, costumes, the tension that builds throughout, the dialoque and the amazingly realistic duels make this film in the top five movies of all time. I have never been able to find it in video stores and tonight, while descr

& France by for example his size, his population, his superior demography and more young people, his power in the new modern technologies, etc. will be the driving country of the USE ^^

OMG, the awakening risks to be very difficult for the USA when it will see the reality of the current & future world & its real new rank :-)

The big problem for you who forget always to see that the real world especially Europe evolve very fast

You should stop seeing Europe as in 19th & 20th century because it's an united continent now & will be it more & more to become soon a real USE :-)

The Walking began & nobody will stop that

The real Superpower in the West in the future it will be The USE much more than the USA ^^ :-)

France?

Don't need for it, it's old of + of 2000 years (& not 200) and it's always there

France dominated ALONE Europe thus the world in this time for almost 3 centuries (17th, 18th and half of 19th centuries vs your ridiculous 60 or even 25 years since the fall of the USSR)

& it will be stronger even soon by the United States of Europe (USE) where it will be in 20 years the dominant state ! :-)

There is the big problem of a blind & retarded people as you who know that the world is you LOL

LOL

That is it what you believe by your propagandist & blind education on the reality of the world, stupid & arrogant American kid :-)

But open your eyes on the real world & its new geopolitic & see :

You are not the master now & in fact your decline has already begun

In fact it's all the "anglo-saxon side" who is in decline

Your real power will have lasted 60 years and only 25 years after the fall of the USSR & it's all ^^ :-)

[Twofry]

the difference is that the people in the US still matter, while the people in France have relegated themselves to the backburner of history

[Bruno G]

Strange coincidence !

We (in France & even in the whole world in fact ^^) say the same thing about the USA :

The problem in the USA is that its filled with retarded and arrogant american anglo-saxon people...

This movie is based in the novel "The Duel" (or "Point of Honor" in the US), written by Joseph Conrad. I strongly recommend to read the book for those who liked the movie.

I think "Movies Unlimited" has it on DVD.
