"The Epic Mini-Series ... Dresden (2006) ... Koch Vision" February 25, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Koch Vision and BBC presents "DRESDEN: THE EPIC MINI-SERIES" (2006) (180 mins/Color) (Dolby Digital) --- As seen on The History Channel -- No one could totally recreate the effects of the London Blitz or the Dresden bombing, but this mini-series "Dresden" makes a strong effort --- Must recommend the BBC presentation ultimately is a fascinating illustration of the effects of war --- The 30-minute making-of featurette only gives a little bit more background on the bombing itself, but it does go into detail about the production of the movie and the production team's efforts to achieve accuracy --- The big budget movie is impressive for a television miniseries; those 10 million euros turn up on the screen --- The films soundtrack is full of 1940s Big Band swing music, comes through with flying colors.
Under the production staff of: Roland Suso Richter - Director Nico Hofmann - Producer Nikolaus Krämer - Producer Sascha Schwingel - Producer Stefan Kolditz - Screenwriter Harald Kloser - Composer (Music Score) Thomas Wanker - Composer (Music Score) Jürgen Schuster - Executive Producer Lucia Faust - Costume Designer
Our story line and plot, Brings together two major themes -- one dealing with the war itself, showing the German civilians living day to day in fear of severe retaliation on behalf of the British RAF --- It also shows how the British pilots, who risk their lives to bomb the enemy -- how ruthless the Nazi's were --- The other theme is a fragment of the previous theme, showing a love story between a stranded British pilot and a German civilian nurse working in a local hospital during the war --- This film betrays something more about World War 2 while 'witnessing' it from another point of view --- and at the same time enjoying an intriguing story about two 'enemies' falling in love --- It's well worth watching
the cast includes: Felicitas Woll ... Anna Mauth John Light ... Robert Newman Benjamin Sadler ... Alexander Wenninger Heiner Lauterbach ... Carl Mauth Katharina Meinecke ... Magda Mauth Marie Bäumer ... Maria Goldberg Kai Wiesinger ... Simon Goldberg Wolfgang Stumph ... Pfarrer Jürgen Heinrich ... Gauleiter Martin Mutschmann Susanne Bormann ... Eva Mauth Paul Ready ...
