Field of Honor
|
Field of Honor is 1987 French movie directed by Jean-Pierre Denis. Winter 1869: Pierre sold himself for military service to replace another villager. He was stationed at Chalons when the war of 1870 broke out. In Alsace, he escaped the massacre and met a lost child. Defeat, invasion, fear shake the whole country and shake up destinies. So they both get through the chaos of war.
The following weapons were used in the film Field of Honor:
Rifles
Gras Model 1874
Algerian, Turkish, French troops including Pierre (Cris Campion) use anachronistic Gras Model 1874 rifles standing for accurate Chassepot 1866 rifles.
Percussion Musket
Prussian soldiers use unknown Percussion Musket. They're hard to identify because they're often seen in the background. Historically correct would be the Dreyse Infantry Rifle M1862 and M1865 and the limited Potsdam Model 1839/55 musket. Prussian cavalry also use this long musket instead of the Dreyse M/57 Carbine.
Other
Field Cannon
Some Field Cannons are seen on the battlefield.
