Good morning Waleed,

probably a still shot from a movie about the german/danish war in the year 1864..?

The famous battle at the "Düppeler Schanzen" comes to mind, April 18th, 1864.

The battle: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Düppeler_Schanzen

No idea for a movie about this battle, did we miss another good movie? :o

Yes, you did miss an ok tv-series and a follow-up movie.
“1864” is the title of both as far as I remember.
I guess the white armbands and prussian/austrian flag were good clues. Over to you.

Thanks Waleed,

please share a link to the former TV series, was this a danish production?

The uniforms and the rifles were the solution, the "White Armband" not known to me..? :o

Next riddle is to come...

Hawai Mare Oki Kaisen, or "The War at Sea from Hawaii to Malaya" (a 1942 Japanese propaganda flick).
Never heard of it, but I recognized Pearl Harbor.

askropp, you are right, the still shot from the production remembered me about the first "Godzilla" movie...

Hawai Mare oki kaisen: Wikipedia (E) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hawai_Mare_oki_kaisen

Stumbled over the still photo long ago, looking for movies about "Pearl Harbor".

Your turn...

Aha...

Looks like Mr. Mel Gibson down there, for sure not a scene from "The Killing Fields" from 1984..?

Besides "Mad Max" , not a fan of Gibsons so called war movies, sorry.
