...or the ghosts of the Titanic heard the orcas were having so much fun sinking rich people's boats they thought they'd give it a try.

Fascinating story OB! FWIW, just finished (re)watching The Brest Fortress/Fortress of War (2010) a film about the 1941 invasion of Belarus and critically acclaimed by the international movie data base standards....based on eponymous events and viewers' imdb comments are in the superlatives. Available through youtube.

Excellent piece! If you enjoy off beat films then you might appreciate Day Watch. It incorporates some mythos regarding Tamerlane. It's the sequel to Night Watch and directed by the guy behind Wanted (Angelina Jolie). Very interesting visual style!

"Anton seeks the legendary Chalk of Fate, a magical chalk that could rewrite history, which was once Tamerlane's property and one of the main reasons for his numerous military successes. "
