Cross of Iron by Service On Celluloid - The National WWII Museum published on 2020-02-25T00:04:10Z Director Sam Peckinpah paints a slow motion picture of the Eastern Front during World War II, where German Wehrmacht no longer know why they are fighting. Tune in as we discuss if Sergeant Steiner and his men accurately represent history in "Cross of Iron." Comment by McGeezer 2 comments: on WWII films protraying Germans in a "sympathetic" light, "The Enemy Below" comes to mind.
