Foreign War Movie - Few Against Thousands

Tools    





My daughter called me up just now and wanted to know the name of a movie. I had no clue so I decided to throw it up here and see if anyone knows.

I apologize for so few details. She didn't have a lot of answers for me.

It's a foreign war film featuring a small villiage fighting off thousands, perhaps hundreds of thousands, from an attack. It's completely in subtitles.

I asked her what era it was and she wasn't sure. She's pretty sure there were no firearms so it's not a recent battle. She also doesn't know the countries involved.

Sorry to be so vague but she was in and out of the living room dealing with the children so she didn't see all of it.

Anyone have a clue what this movie is? I'm pretty sharp when it comes to war films but my knowledge fades quickly when it turns to foreign and subtitles.

If no one can guess this I completely understand given the lack of details.

Hard to know without the reference of an era to go on, or a language.

Christine, you are very good. I just called her. She looked up pictures from the movie and said that was it.

THANKS!

If she would have told me it involved the Burmese I would have guessed it. I'm pretty good with historical battles.

I never knew they made a film about this. I'm definitely putting this on my Netflix list.

Thanks again, Christine. You're a miracle worker to get that with so little intel. Oohrah to you!

Hey, Gunny, know about this guy? Never heard of him myself until I saw this serialized Korean drama.
