That’s one reason I like the pre-CGI movies. When you see a crowd or an army, you know it’s real people.

Two movies I recommend to everyone. ‘Waterloo’ with Rod Steiger. To make ‘War And Peace’ the Soviets trained 16,000 Red Army troops in old time cavalry, artillery, and infantry tactics. They later rented those troops out to Hollywood. The battle at the end of the movie is one of the most authentic reenactments ever filmed.

‘Thunderball’ with Sean Connery. So, James Bond tells the CIA SPECTRE is smuggling stolen A-bombs underwater. The Navy paradrops 100 SEALs into0 the middle of the ocean, where they put on scuba gear and fight bad guys armed with sea sleds. All real guys…
