From the rubble of bombed-out German cities came the madness of the Nazi rocket program and the creation of the Me163 rocket plane, also known as the "Komet." With skilled pilots in short supply, delusional Nazi doctors used blackmail and coercion to force those they deemed candidates to attempt to pilot these deadly machines. It became the mission of a group of American pilots to stop the Nazis from unleashing their maniacal plot, knowing that failure was not an option. close
Cinco fueron escogidos taking place in Slavko, a "peaceful town in Yugoslavia," with only Yugoslavians and Germans as characters, not a Mexican or Spaniard more
Cinco fueron escogidos taking place in Slavko, a "peaceful town in Yugoslavia," with only Yugoslavians and Germans as characters, not a Mexican or Spaniard in sight. Another interesting point about Cinco fueron escogidos is the existence of an alternate version, shot in English with a different cast (at least in major roles). Sadly, this film, usually referred to as "Five Were Chosen" but sometimes called "Hostages" (not to be confused with the somewhat similar 1943 Hollywood movie with that title), appears to be lost. García Riera indicates the English-language version was screened in Mexico, at least for the press, but does not seem to have been released commercially in the Mexico or the USA. Since Herbert Kline was well-known for his leftist views, it's not surprising to note that many of the imported Hollywood actors were also left-leaning (and in fact more than one was blacklisted during the Red Scare era). close

In 1808, a detachment of Napoleon’s army under the command of the Swiss mercenary Crutter Grotz came from Barcelona to punish the villagers who refused to pay taxes in favor of the French. Near the town of Bruch, he was shattered, ambushed by local residents. Two weeks later, the French sent an army against the Catalan partisans, which met in a bloody battle with the militia. Together with their fathers, their children took part in the battle, who, by beating their drums, created the illusion that there are several times more Catalan fighters than in reality. close
