Another great one is "Waterloo." Back in the day, the Soviets trained thousands of Red Army troops in Napoleonic cavalry tactics. They wanted to compete with Hollywood when they made 'War And Peace.' Those same troops helped Hollywood make Waterloo, which has a very accurate reenactment of the battle.
