“Brest Fortress” is a pretty good Russian WWII movie made a few years ago.

The Brest Fortress (2010) is an awesome movie. Saw it a few months ago from a FR thread. Worth sitting through subtitles. Entire movie is available on You Tube at this link;

I agree, was fairly factual too. The Russian defenders at Brest threw a monkey wrench in Hitler’s easy victory for that segment of the front.

In the initial invasion (Operation Barbarossa) of Russia, most all other defenses quickly collapsed and troops surrendered by the hundreds of thousands. But not at Brest, they literally fought to the last man.
