	American Experience \| Battle of the Bulge \| Film Description
		In December 1944, he struck back with a counterattack that has come to be known as the Battle of the Bulge -- the single biggest and bloodiest American soldiers have ever fought -- in which nearly 80,000 were killed, maimed or captured in an infernal test of courage and endurance.
		Battle of the Bulge looks at the battle through the eyes of the U.S. soldiers and combat officers in the field -- the young men charged with holding the line and closing the bulge.
		The Battle of the Bulge ended in the last few days of January 1945, when American troops made their way back to the original lines: the ones they had held when the battle began.

	Amazon.ca: Battle of the Bulge: Music: Benjamin Frankel,Werner Andreas Albert,Brisbane Queensland Symphony Orchestra (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
		Battle of the Bulge (1965) was the last of 105 film, theatre and television productions to be graced with a Frankel score, and is his film-music masterpiece.
		Reflecting a film on the scale of The Longest Day and The Great Escape, there are more than 78 minutes of music, and, due to the low level at which the score was mixed in the finished film, much of it is really heard on this release for the first time.
		The 1965 film "The Battle of the Bulge" may have played fast and loose with historical fact but in its original Cinerama release it was quite an eyeful.

	[No title]
		This big, bloated epic re-creation of the battle which turned the tide of World War II manages to be on the most historically inaccurate and over-blown adventure pieces ever produced.
		The film relies solely on the excellently-shot action sequences and superb acting by the leads to hold it together.
		The battle scenes, notably a huge tank vs. tank battle and a conclusion involving an attempted German capture of an Allied fuel dump are incredibly corny and false-looking, adding a forced jingoistic feel and over-reaching heroism which really destroyed the credibility Annakin had been working up to.

	Benjamin FRANKEL Battle of the Bulge: Film Music CD Reviews- August 2000 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
		Battle of the Bulge (1965) was one such film.
		For decades the film has only been seen (or half-seen) on television, and it is simply not possible to judge the full merits of such superb spectaculars this way.
		It is a big score, this CD running virtually 79 minutes and essentially containing all the music from the film: a few short cues, which were slight variations on material included on the album, were omitted because it wasn't possible to fit any more music onto the disc.

		However, most people know that the Battle of the Bulge was an important component in the defeat of Germany in World War II.
		This battle took place in the Ardennes Forest and it was Germany's last chance to save themselves by putting a "bulge" in the Allied line.
		I enjoyed the film, however, the dialogue between Kiley and his superiors is the product of bad script-writing.

	Battle of the Bulge (film) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The battle scenes—mostly set pieces between masses of armor—though exciting, are not accurate, except for showing how the German King Tiger tanks were superior to the American M4 Sherman tanks.
		So what you see on the screen are truly the tanks that were fought in the Battle of the Bulge and throughout the Western Front and on the Russian Front in World War II.
		Shaw's character may also have been influenced by one of the film's technical advisors, the Heer officer Major General Meinrad von Lauchert, who had been put in command of the German 2nd Panzer Division the day before the attack was launched.

		The one positive note about this film in terms of historical accuracy is that it wasn't focusing on Bastogne as the "key" to the whole offensive.
		The Battle of the Bulge was won and lost on the northern flank where the 6SS Panzer Army was stopped, bloodied, delayed and detoured by fierce resistance and swarms of reinforcements in rugged terrain.
		Battle of the is one of my favorite war movie to watch, next to Devil's Brigade, The Great Escape, The Green Berets, Where Eagles Dare, and Ice Station Zebra.
