The Red Baron (2008)

2008 · 106 min · Action, Adventure, Drama, History, War

Richthofen goes off to war like thousands of other men. As fighter pilots, they become cult heroes for the soldiers on the battlefields. Marked by sportsmanlike conduct, technical exactitude and knightly propriety, they have their own code of honour. Before long he begins to understand that his hero status is deceptive. His love for Kate, a nurse, opens his eyes to the brutality of war.

Directed by Nikolai Müllerschön. Starring Matthias Schweighöfer, Til Schweiger, Lena Headey, Joseph Fiennes and Volker Bruch.
