Product description
10th Mountain Division DVD
Review
This excellent DVD tells a powerful story--in fact, it is the best film documentary yet on the 10th Mountain in World War II, truly getting inside one of the most heroic divisions in the American military history. That the 10th Mountain had an unequaled postwar impact on the sport of skiing makes this film doubly worth watching. The films does a particularly good job in depicting the devastatingly difficult and deadly campaign, interweaving action shots with at least a hundred soldiers' sometimes laconic, sometimes heart-rending commentaries on camera and in letters home, plumbing the depths of fear and courage, of desperation ad elation and craziness evoked in this division's war. To its everlasting credit, "The Last Ridge" recaptures the feeling of the Italian campaign, building quietly without the gloss of heroics, an atmosphere that gradually became emotionally intense, conveying at a gut level the deadly determination of soldiers believing they all shared the grim task fo holding in their hands the future of their nation. --Reviewed by Morten Lund for Skiing Heritage Magazine, September 2007.
