A mesmerizing, "they don't make 'em like they used to" World War II film, the pulse-pounding 'Max Manus: Man of War' tells the remarkable tale of one of the war's greatest resistance fighters. After fighting against the Russians in Finland in 1939, Norwegian soldier Max Manus (Aksel Hennie) soon finds himself battling the Germans as a pioneer of Norway's resistance movement, becoming one of the most brilliant WWII saboteurs by crippling and sinking German warships. The film is the winner of six Norwegian Academy Awards (including Best Film and Best Actor).
Special features include "Film and Reality," a 45-minute documentary with behind-the-scenes footage, interview snippets with the directors, cast, and crew, and archive interview footage of Manus and his daughter.
