The film plays fast and loose with historical fact, but no more than a Hollywood film of the 1940s. Though undoubtedly a Nazi propaganda piece, the film is not what you would expect; there are many myths and misconceptions about it. One is director Veit Harlan's absurd claim that nearly 180,000 Wehrmacht troops were diverted from the eastern front to be used as extras. The prevailing estimate today is between 10,000 to 20,000, but even this may well be inflated. There is no doubt, however, that Propaganda Minister Josef Goebbels was much involved in the writing and editing, and that major resources were put into the production, the last major release in the Third Reich. It is not a celebration of the Nazi cult of death as some suppose. In fact, Goebbels found the initial cut of the film to be too violent and graphic and caused many shots to be deleted. If the film has any coherent message at all, it seems to be one of defiance and survival in the face of overwhelming odds. It is not anti-Semitic or anti-Slavic; the Russians are barely mentioned in the film, the Jews not at all. Technically speaking the film is up to the highest standards for the time; the battle sequences in particular are rather well done. Regardless of whatever Goebbels intended, the film had practically no effect on the German public. When it was released in January 1945, there were few cinemas left in Germany due to Allied bombing. Also, the real Kolberg (now Kolobrzeg, Poland) had just fallen to the Red Army. It is what it is. NOTE: Thanks to the uploader of the ISO.

I've been looking for this film for ten years to complete my collection of nazi WW2 films, now, when after a few months I got it after countless searches, it becomes readily available here. AGHHH! Thank you anyway, it was Goebbels last (and fruitless) effort to make ordinary Germans die fighting for their damned nazi regime. No such luck, krauts may be fanatics when they are brainwashed, but not stupid, so they surrendered .... and lived.

PLEASE. SEED YOUR MUCHHAUSEN FILM, I started to download it and now it has slowed down a lot... OK, I admit I may not have them all but I have about 78 of the most well known and also all the wartime and before surviving Wochenschau and Tonwoche, about 100 Gigabytes of such films. I was looking for Kolberg to download it from internet and it was NOWHERE available until recently, there was in fact a torrent but without seeders for years. Thank you.

Due to a technical problem, this torrent is not showing full availability despite all files being present and complete. The problem has now been corrected with a new torrent available here: Seeders are very welcome and appreciated; the file and folder names have not been changed. You can delete this torrent from your client and add the new one to continue your download and to seed.
sarsapil: Re Munchhausen, send me a PM at SuprBay (CaptButlerII); there is a problem but also a solution, I believe. Re Kolberg, I believe I know the torrent you mention; it was for an AVI file with French subs.
