Ridley Scott zrobił najgorszy film swojego życia.Takiej szmiry jeszcze nie widziałem . To chyba naprawdę zemsta na Francuzach. Aktor grający Napoleona to całkowita pomyłka.
Maybe there is some director that wants to make an historical accurate movie but the industry dont give a shit about historic accuracy, its a industry. The sad truth is there will be never again a waterloo because today nobody will finance it, when waterloo came in 1970 it was a box office failure and even stanley kubrick gived up on his napoleon movie because of it
these great directors, Ridley Scott and Stanley Kubrick, had no “experience” with Napoleonica. Only Sergei Bondarchuk had the necessary knowledge and skills to handle this most complex material. Even Rod Steiger drew out the complexity and depth of Bonoparte's fortune
Wellington jamais avait pris risques innecessaires avec ses forces, il etait beaucoup plus conservative y prudent a l'heure de entrer en combate que Napoleon qui voulait se montrer plus aggressif sur le champ, malgré lesgraves dangers a lequelles il les exposait. Et Wellington avait organisé meilleur le système de fournir ses troupes que Napoleon l'avait fait avec les siens.

No one with a knowledge of history would ever declare the French cowards or losers......and that is from a Brit!! A very brave, courageous, and intelligent people that shaped the best of themodern world. VIVA LA FRANCE 🇫🇷

Si vous aviez accepté les Français à l'époque de Napoléon III, vous auriez certainement un niveau de vie plus élevé ! Le Mexique n'est pas un pays qui fait rêver ! Délinquance, meurtres, gangs, une horreur absolue ! Le Mexique d'aujourd'hui est tellement bien que sa population fuit vers les USA !

@franciscovaldez550 they were travellers like the Brits and nobody could touch them on their own soil, the best of the time by miles. They were both over stretched on a world scale but influenced it more than anyone the greatest 2 ever and no cowards there.
Note the French uniform with its high level of blue. That is where you get your jeans from! Blue de Gene. It was the cheapest dye and material a French contractor could produce army uniforms for Napoleon. The British had red for a similar reason. In an army everything was on the cheap because people were cheap. That was so throughout warfare and only started to change with democracy and then people were incited by words and democratic ideas so the were still cheap! Nothing changes!
The way I heard the story is that the fabric was originally produced in the town of Nimes, France. Hence, the name “de Nimes” (of or from Nimes) was anglicized to denim.
In fact, 'blue de Gene', means 'of Genoa' were the kind of tissues later used for 'jeans' was produced for the Piedmont Army to be used for the tents of the soldiers or to cover the wagons (Genova was part of the Piedmont kingdom, then Kingdom of Sardinia)
Was Common until age 15 kids be in the battlefield as Musicians, when they turned 15 they would act as a normal soldier, Very common tbh, also remember that some Discoverys on 2017 in Wagram they found ground holes with piles of dead soldiers from ages 16 to 30.
The Flag of the 1st Regiment Of Grenadiers of the Imperial Guard is on permanent display in a small public gallery in the US. I was shocked to learn this.. 😳
No offense chum, but at no stage did the 1st Foot Guard repulse a single soldier of the Old Guard at Waterloo. The principal final French assault was undertaken by the 3rd and 4th Regiments of Grenadiers of the Middle Guard (they don't wear bearskins). True they were supported by the 1st Battalion 2nd Chasseurs of the Old Guard HOWEVER, they were well back in echelon and when the attack failed they withdrew in good order and cuffed aside any who had the arrogance to attack them. TL;DR the 1st Foot Guard were awarded Bearskins for their "role" in "repulsing" the Grenadiers of the Old Guard at Waterloo. Never happened.

actually the first 20 seconds or show are not from the movie Waterloo (1970) but the rest of the clips are indeed from that film - years ago the record label Nonesuch released an album of Napoleonic-era marches and fanfares that included this piece - by far the best is the Consular March of Marengo (also used in Napoleonic movies)
No, Napoleon was not the bloodthirsty tyrant that the Anglo-Saxons portrayed in their war propaganda. The reality is that he and his troops spread throughout Europe and beyond the demand for freedom and democracy that the French Revolution had raised, and that Napoleon engraved in the stone of French institutions.
You really should read about his campaign in Spain. That was a bloodbath and a long chain of horrible atrocities. He was a tyrant. Though a charismatic one
@@nicolafiliber3062 You are speaking of the Spanish War of Independence, 1808-1814? As you know, Napoleon's enemy was not Spain or Portugal but the UK and its maritime empire. Not unlike present day Ukraine vs. Russia, most Spaniards rejected French rule and fought a bloody war to oust them. The “Coalition” led by the Brits provided whatever supplies they could get to the Spanish, while the Spanish guerrillas destroyed vast numbers of Napoleon's troops. According to Wikipedia, the war on the peninsula lasted until the Coalition defeated Napoleon in 1814, and is regarded as one of the first wars of national liberation. In June 1812, Napoleon set out with a massive army on an invasion of Russia and reached Moscow in September 1812. But could not stay because all resources to supply the army had been destroyed by the tsarists (In Russia it is known as the “Patriotic War”). In Spain, in 1812-1814, a combined army led by Wellesley was able to defeat the remaining elements of the French forces (Salamanca, Madrid, Bayonne…).
His egyptian campaign also gives a clear potrait of his character he was extremely ambitious, believed only in his power and was practical despite his ambition bordering insanity. He was ruthless, he wasnt sadistic but would sacrifice everyone for his ambition. power however have its weight and its dirt, even today politicians, the majority of those at the top could be rightfully called tyrants or war criminals, the ultimate authority was always violence. At the time of napoleon the others monarchs were no better and even with all the liberte egalite fraternite sweet bullshit he was a monarch
The great Emperor made only one terrible mistake: he climbed into the den of the Russian Bear without permission. By the way, this mistake was repeated again and unfortunately they want to repeat it in the near future,......
Napoléon est allé en Russie afin d'obliger le Tsar à respecter le traité qu'il venait de signer. L'ennui,le méprisable Talleyrand passait son temps à "encourager "les adversaires de Napoléon à attaquer sans cesse...Napoléon voulait la paix et pensait que les "royals" étaient corrects...Le tsar était donc à la solde des anglais que seul le fric intéressait.
@@francoiselicker4775 Vous êtes dans l'illusion de l'histoire passée, mon cher ami ! At that time, were there agreements between European neighbors that Napoleon would have observed ? At that time, Napoleon pursued the elementary goals of a conqueror: to take possession of the immense wealth of the Russians and bring England to its knees. With the same ideas, in 1941, Hitler invaded the Soviet Union. Everything repeats itself in our history and, unfortunately, everything will repeat itself again in the near future,....
Napoleon's biggest mistake was to invade Spain (we were allies) thinking the Spanish were sheep instead of wolves! he lost many veterans who would have helped him in Russia!
Ich bin zwar Preuße muss aber zugeben, dass die Musik der napoleonischen Armee perfekt war. Napoleon soll ja mal am Sarg Friedrich des Großen gesagt haben,... "Friedrich der Große! Würde ich heute hier stehen, wenn Du heute noch leben würdest? Es ist schlimm was jetzt grade in Frankreich passiert nach der Wahl, wo kommunistische Banden jetzt wohl an der Regierung sind, durch ein fiesen Spiel gegen Le Pen. Kaiser Napoleon wurde sich im Grab umdrehen, wurde er das sehen, wie Frankreich islamiesiert und kommunistisch regiert wird.

La mort de Napoléon Ier survient le 5 mai 1821 à Longwood sur l’île de Sainte-Hélène, durant son exil, à l'âge de 51 ans. 😪Elle est due à un cancer de l'estomac, résultant d'une aggravation d'un ulcère. À partir des années 1950, certains auteurs ont contesté cette version, et ont proposé une cause d'origine criminelle à la suite d'un empoisonnement à l'arsenic. Cette thèse est réfutée par les historiens spécialistes de Napoléon Ier.
génie politique de son époque car le code napoléonien est celui qui est toujours appliqué de nos jours génie militaire Entre 1792 et 1815 se succèdent sept coalitions européennes. C'est en affrontant l'une d'entre elles que Napoléon subit une série de défaites militaires et l'invasion des armées coalisées et le reste c est l histoire
@@robnewman6101 Napoleon was a calamity. It is not a question of saying that everything about him is to be thrown away, but overall, the great historian Jacques Bainville is right to conclude, in his masterful study on Napoleon: “Except for glory, except for “art”, it probably would have been better if he had not existed." Now, he's been dead for so long, it might be time to calm down a little about him, one way or the other. I refuse to make this a topic of discussion with anyone. It's too late. In any case, it won't be long before we all join him in the empire of the dead.😱

Now, he's been dead for so long, it might be time to calm down a little about him, one way or the other. I refuse to make this a topic of discussion with anyone. It's too late. In any case, it won't be long before we all join him in the empire of the dead.😱

Those super tough beaver trappers of the US Rocky Mountains, yes the Mountain Men, were the guys who made fur hats possible for Napoleon's Grande Army..
Grande Armee, pronounced "armay". Good point about the fur hats.
@@paulhomsy2751 I know very little French, after spending 21 years in the US Army I learned how to spell Army. I knew Napoleon's Army was the Grande Armay, at least until the defeat.
