I don't think I've ever seen a cataphract reenactor until now

I have yet to see any cinematic depiction of anything concerning military history and/or war- fighting- melee- you-name-it, come close to the actual thing.

Edited to add what I forgot cause my ferret sounded very ill and had to be checked, except Stalingrad. That is not too bad.

Have you seen "Tora! Tora! Tora!"? I understand it is pretty accurate. It certainly seems more like a documentary than a film.

BTW, which "Stalingrad"-film are you referring to?

[antisocialmunky]

Its the German one I believe. That one that starts out really happy and then gets super ridiculously depressing.
