"General Picton does not even know how to walk in a ballroom!" "Yes, but he's very good when he's dancing with the French." "But one dances with them in a field!"
I’ve watched it, and I think it’s the finest film I’ve ever watched. Anyone who hasn’t watched it is missing out a great deal. This is a beautiful and strong film especially the music.
I loved the scene when Wellington ordered all of the officers to the field. A calm atmosphere slowly turned into a slight chaotic one when the Prussian arrived all soaked and filthy, and then the doors to the garden opened and the wind rushed in. I could just feel, and really experience it. Still my favourite movie of all time.
fun fact: the duchess of Richmond's ball did take place but this waltz was not played (made for the movie). Also the ball was 3 days before the battle not the day before (taking into account the battles of ligny and quatre bras)
The Ball was 3 days before the Battle of Waterloo; but was the night before the Battle of Quatre-Bras where some officers where killed while wearing their dancing shoes.
This piece works great because it sounds like something that would play at a 19th century ball, but it also gives a feeling of impending doom, especially the way it was used with the thunderstorm and the cut to the advance of the French army. The window blows open with a strong gust of wind, and suddenly you get a feeling that something dreadful is approaching.
I love how the last half of the waltz perfectly encapsulates the feeling of a loved one leaving and going off into battle, never to be seen again, right after a dreamy dance too
This score is a subtle blend of sound, image and mood perfectly designed to warn and unnerve us. The haunting melody is sweetly sad and ominous. Certainly the film hopes it to be which is why a good amount of time is spent on it. We've seen Napoleon and his situation and now it's Wellington's turn, together with 'his' commanders and junior officers. They'll all meet a different fate.
Muffling: it's Napoleon sir he has Wellington: I'm aware muffling Napoleon has crossed the border Muffling: with all his forces he has become between both our armies Wellington: where? Muffling: at charlois
Wellington: he's humbugged me in a nights march he's made his piecemeal if Marshall blucher stays in Belgium I stay too Muffling: on that promise lord duke blucher will tie his men to trees if necessary Wellington: these four roads here De lancy: catre brios he's bound to go for them sir Wellington: if I can't hold him there I'll stop him here (circles waterloo) Charlois by god that man does war honour
Gneisnau: marshal blucher the sector is broken I have ordered the retreat Blucher: Retreat I am 72 and proud soldier this steel is my world I am too old to break it Gniesnau: If Wellington runs for the coast non of us will return home to Berlin I do not trust the English nevertheless I have served you before but God help us if he does not stand
@@hancock63 Well, seeing so much death, pain, and agony will change a man and certainly take a toll on his mental health. Being a soldier is not easy especially back in the early 1800's.

No, sadly(well, not really) it was made specifically for the movie. I could be completely wrong though but I'm pretty sure that it was made for the movie alone.

By God sir, I've lost my leg. By God sir, so you have. It is the most British thing I have ever heard. Absolutely love this movie.
Also the most British response to seeing someone getting their leg blown away
Whenever you get an injury like that, you might actually not realize it for a moment. It's bizarre, but that's what doctors say.

I can’t believe music this good was composed for a film not many people have actually watched!
And a film like it shall most likely never be made again.
Just watching this movie for the first time ever..ive fallen in love with this beautiful piece of music.

This is arguably the best waltz ever composed for a film.

WWII Channel Im agreed with you
Yes 🙌
same!
It was an incredible waltz, the last of dozens who would not live to see a continuation.
This Waltz really did take place a day before the battle.
fun fact:
the duchess of Richmond's ball did take place but this waltz was not played (made for the movie). Also the ball was 3 days before the battle not the day before (taking into account the battles of ligny and quatre bras)
The Noobinator plus it took place in more of a barn than this elaborate hall!
I know this was from two years ago but the waltz technically took place 155 years after the battle.
But it wasn't set in a stupidly fancy place like what it shows in the movie
The Ball was 3 days before the Battle of Waterloo; but was the night before the Battle of Quatre-Bras where some officers where killed while wearing their dancing shoes.
One of the greatest waltzes composed for a movie which itself is one of the greatest ever.
Rest in peace Nino
Rota, composer of this grand waltz specifically composed for this masterpiece of a film. This is what heaven must sound like......
ThIs film is fantastic. And thIs music is wonderfull.
This piece works great because it sounds like something that would play at a 19th century ball, but it also gives a feeling of impending doom, especially the way it was used with the thunderstorm and the cut to the advance of the French army.

I never thought I'd find such a musical gem like this from a countryball video (CSTPBall)

@@kohukesfr3840Watch the movie it’s from. You won’t regret it.
nice to find so many people here for the same reason as me
Nina Rota was a great composer and this gem is no exception. A wonderful arrangement as well.
General Picton was very good at dancing with the French...especially in the Peninsular.

Some of the officers who attended the ball died with their dancing shoes and stockings still on
C. I can confirm this is true
Quite so
Elegant, Majestic & Fair! Truly 19th century music, glorious long live Britain.

2:44 why?
I was thinking more 3:00
Still can't believe Wellington didn't oblige Muffling with a fresh horse
Bo
I'm not sure he didn't. He just stormed out, but we have to assume he still got a horse
Beautiful piece of music with just a whiff of tragedy lingering in the air.
"Don't let young Hay get killed, I don't want her to wear black, before she wore white."
Then he gets shot and Wellington's expression is like 'whoops'
That.......didn't age well.
"Think of England men! Think of England!"
Oh why must we kill each other. . Why why !?
Oh no
