Cross of Iron (1977)
De film gaat over een gedesillusioneerd Duits peloton aan het Oostfront met Steiner als belichaming van de totale idiotie van oorlog. Onder begeleiding van een scherp contrasterend kinderkoor en gruwelijke dia's ontvouwt zich een orgie van plastisch geweld waaruit iedere individuele soldaat op zijn eigen manier probeert te ontsnappen.
