Duell – Enemy at the Gates (2001)

Duell – Enemy at the Gates: Directed by Jean-Jacques Annaud. With Jude Law, Ed Harris, Rachel Weisz, Joseph Fiennes. A Russian and a German sniper play a game of cat-and-mouse during the Battle of Stalingrad.

“Ed Harris (the Nazi) and Jude Law (the Russian) are matched against each other as World War II snipers serving their countries. Joseph Fiennes is also good in a pivotal role as is Bob Hoskins as Nikita Khrushchev and Rachel Weisz as a strong female character. This is a compelling look at the constantly needed reminder that simply, war is terrible and the innocent victims that suffer is even more tragic. Director Jean-Jacques Annaudu0026#39;s still framed direction has always lacked a depth of character development but he still makes admirable films for the high end lovers of film art.”
