Must watch movie!!!
I just finished a movie on Netflix called "The 12th Man"
A epic flick about a WW2 Norwegian resistance fighter.
It's a outdoors movie filled with some stunning scenery and extremely well shot. I enjoyed every second of this film. It was a absolute pleasure to watch. Unfortunately, 99% is in Norwegian but it really doesn't matter. This is well worth the little extra to read the sub titles.
Based on a true story and it really is amazing.

I'm game for it. While we're on things Norwegian...….on Nexflix there is a TV series called "Occupied". Again set in Norway, produced in Norway, modern day occupation by Russians...………….mostly English, some Norwegian, easy to follow. It's only one season, wish it were more...

The second seasons is out for quite some time already now and a third season has been confirmed as well. Really like that series and setting as well.

Chances are you are just missing the button that allows for the subtitles. Are you watching it on Net fix?

I watched that about a week ago and agree it was a good movie. Another one worth finding is country of mine. It’s not on Netflix but has to do with using German pow’s to clear mines off the beach after the war had ended.

Unbelievable what that man went through. Really good movie, thanks for the recommendation. Subtitles didn’t bother me at all.

I would recommend Tuntematon sotilas. It is a WW2 movie from Finland. I was tired from the war movies full of pathos and stuff. This one feels very realistic.

Find the movie “The Way Back” with Collin Farrell and Ed Harris. The group of international prisoners escaped from Gulag and walked to India. Un bloody believable story of survival.
