Stumbled across this "2012 Norwegian film", apparently based on a true story of an He111 crew and a Blackburn Skua crew who, having shot each other down over Norway, are forced to work together to survive.

Trailer looks quite good: YouTube link

Anyone caught it anywhere?

I actually found it at a local video store a year or so ago. I am pretty hard to please when it comes to movies and I rate a lot of them as "okay," as I would this one. I am sure other would call it a good movie. The director did a good job of depicting the isolation of their condition and the brutality of the winter.

I think I may have to look out for that one.

Good to see Rupert Grint managing to get away from his Potter typecasting too – he must be finding that a bit tricky at the moment.

It's on Netflix. I started to watch it but let it go.

A Norwegian miniseries,"The Heavy Water War" is coming up on MHZ this year (I hope). Trailer online, and looks great.

And I'll take the opportunity to flog "Nicolas Le Floch" again, on tonight 10PM EDT,for Louis XV fans (surely there are some?). Swordplay,corpses,French horses, lots of powder and rouge (and that's just on the men!).And rats.
More on 18th century media board.
Trailers for every episode on the MHZ website.

Watched it on ETV, so in Russian, didn't get the nuances but was interesting because it was a true story. Liked the lifeboat-like tension.

Stumbled across this "2012 Norwegian film", apparently based on a true story of an He111 crew and a Blackburn Skua crew who, having shot each other down over Norway, are forced to work together to survive.

The Skua pilot survived the war and wrote an autobiography. I have not seen the film but I suspect the 'cooperative' aspects are exaggerated. As I recall it the larger Heinkel crew 'captured' the Skua crew, high in the mountains where both aircraft crashed, but the Skua crew were subsequently released by a Norwegian patrol who captured the German crew; all done in the best of taste and without casualties.
