Guess I'll just give in and go with the subtitles...
“My problem with subtitles is I seem to miss the action while reading. Have been hoping ‘1864’ would come out in English. It’s about Denmark attacking Germany.”
It was Germany, actually Prussia at the time, that attacked Demark in 1864 over the border province of Schleswig-Holstein. This was when Bismarck was consolidating power to the lead up with war in 1866 with Austria then the big take down of France in 1870.
I haven’t bothered with Netflix. I’m a throwback, and I still buy DVDs at flea markets or on e-bay.
