The Winter War
Nice, but where's the trigger? This article or section is incomplete. You can help IMFDB by expanding it. |
The Winter War (Talvisota) is a Finnish movie from 1989. The film begins with the mobilization of the Finnish Army in October 1939 and ends on 13th of March 1940 with the Moscow Peace Treaty. We follow a few soldiers from their mobilization through the trench warfare and massive Soviet artillery barrages until their surrender. It's the most costly Finnish film to date and its historically very accurate considering they interviewed Finnish veterans prior to the filming.
The following guns were used in the movie The Winter War:
Mosin Nagant M1891/30
The Mosin Nagant M1891/30 is the main rifle used by Red Army soldiers throughout the film.
Suomi KP/-31
The Finnish Suomi KP/-31 is used by Finnish soldiers throughout the film.
Lahti-Saloranta LS/26
Lahti-Saloranta LS/26, the standard light machine gun of the Finnish army in that period, is used by the Finnish soldiers.
Degtyaryov Dp-27/28
The DP LMG is used by both the Red Army soldiers and the Finnish soldiers.
Mauser C96
The holster of a Mauser C96 can be seen on the belt of a Finnish officer in few scenes.
