  • The 18th June 1815 dawns on the field of Waterloo and the two opposing armies take their places on a battlefield sodden and muddy after a night of heavy rain.
    The fourth track from the soundtrack to the 1970 historical epic film Waterloo, directed by Sergey Bondarchuk and starring Rod Steiger as Napoleon and Christopher Plummer as Wellington. The accompanying soundtrack was composed by Nino Rota.

    'Ahhhemmm, Sir. '
    'Ah, Uxbridge.'
    'As I am second-in-command and in case anything should happen to you, what are your plans?'
    'To beat the French.'
    What a simple and direct strategy.

    - No... After Austerlitz - I said I would have six more good years. Now it's ten years and nine campaigns later. Listening?
    - Every word.
    - After I am dead and gone, what will the world say of me?
    - It will say you extended the limits of glory.
    - Is that all I'll leave my son? The limits of glory?
