The Red Baron (2008)
7/10
Der rote Baron: a beautiful film about a really legendary man.
25 June 2014
A nice movie, not completely faithful to Manfred Von Richthofen's life I'm told, but very pleasant to watch. A fantastic production with beautiful scenes, great battlefields and very good actors: Matthias Schweighöfer over all.

How could you become a hero without killing anyone? How can you win fear but not be able to cope with the death of those you love? How can you grow up as a Prussian gentleman and yet despise militaristic societies? These are the universal themes the movie deals with and I found it very interesting.

The man himself really was and still is a legend by all means.
