Waterloo (Russian: Ватерлоо) is a 1970 Soviet-Italian film directed by Sergei Bondarchuk and produced by Dino De Laurentiis. It depicts the story of the preliminary events and the Battle of Waterloo, and is famous for its lavish battle scenes.
It stars Rod Steiger as Napoleon Bonaparte and Christopher Plummer as the Duke of Wellington with a cameo by Orson Welles as Louis XVIII of France. Other stars include Jack Hawkins as General Thomas Picton, Virginia McKenna as the Duchess of Richmond and Dan O'Herlihy as Marshal Ney.
The film includes some 15,000 Soviet foot soldiers and 2,000 cavalrymen as extras—it was said that, during its making, director Sergei Bondarchuk was in command of the seventh largest army in the world. Fifty circus stunt riders were used to perform the dangerous horse falls. These numbers brought an epic quality to the battle scenes.
In 1814 French Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte, facing certain defeat at the hands of Britain, Austria, Prussia and Russia (the Sixth coalition), abdicates at the demand of his marshals. He is banished to Elba with 1,000 men, but escapes and returns to France. Ney, now serving the monarchy of Louis XVIII of France, is tasked with recapturing him, but he and his army defect to Napoleon. King Louis flees, Napoleon triumphantly enters Paris, and the European powers declare war.

Film von Sergej Bondartschuk (1970) Es war keine Schlacht wie jede andere, die am 18. Juni 1815 nahe des belgischen Dorfes Waterloo stattfand. Je 70.000 Mann standen sich gegenüber, als Sir Arthur Wellesley, Duke of Wellington und Gebhard Leberecht von Blücher gemeinsam gegen Napoleon I. zogen, um Europa von dessen 18-jähriger Herrschaft zu befreien. Eine gigantische Schlacht tobte an jenem Tag, an deren Ende nicht nur unzählige Gefallene die Felder säumten, sondern auch die entscheidende Niederlage des ruhmreichen Feldherrn Napoleon I. Stand. Der russische Regisseur und Schauspieler Sergeij Bondartschuk hat sich 1969 den historischen Stoff vorgenommen, um der monumentalen Schlacht ein filmisches Denkmal zu setzen. Mit großem finanziellen und technischen Aufwand sowie einer immensen Sch...

"At this crucial juncture, Uxbridge ordered his two brigades of British heavy cavalry, formed unseen behind the ridge, to charge in support of the hard-pressed infantry. Continuing their attack, the squadrons on the left of the Household Brigade then destroyed Aulard's brigade. Despite attempts to recall them, however, they continued past La Haye Sainte and found themselves at the bottom of the hill on blown horses facing Schmitz's brigade formed in squares. Napoleon promptly responded by ordering a counter-attack by the cuirassier brigades of Farine and Travers and Jaquinot's two lancer regiments in the I Corps light cavalry division. The result was very heavy losses for the British cavalry." From the movie Waterloo. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0066549/ http://en.wikipedia.org/...

You were sitting in a black limousine,
Dressed like a model in a fancy magazine.
I sat there and you trusted to look,
I pretended I was reading my book.
At once you said, `Now come on, let's dance.'
I said no and you missed your chance.
Now you, you, you found your Waterloo.
You, you, you found your Waterloo.
We met on the party of the embassy,
You came over and got a drink for me.
I accepted with a tender love,
For you that smile was more than enough.
At once you said, `Now come on, let's dance.'
I said no and you missed your chance.
Now you, you, you found your Waterloo.
You, you, you found your Waterloo.
Hey na now.

Hey, hey now.
Hey now.
