I've watched a few documentaries on the eastern front and this one is pretty good, although fairly short just telling the basic story.
However the footage in it is all very accurate to the battle.
Often these doco's show Germans in battle for Moscow with winter suits on which is clearly not from the Moscow campaign. Many films just use stock battle footage from any time of the war and just throw it in.
So if you're interested in seeing real footage that is accurate to the time it's worth a watch.
It's an old series and many of you have probably seen it but I thought I'd just put it out there for those that haven't, I'm surprised I haven't come across it before.
(it's on youtube a part of the series called, "The Big Battles")
