Shang gan ling (1956)
An amazing movie but sadly forgotten
This movie very accurately depicts what Westerners call "the Battle of Triangle Hill." It is very unfortunate that this movie is not largely known of in western media, and this can largely be attributed to the fact that this movie depicts the members of the People's Volunteer Army as being great heroes while the UN forces were shown as warmongering fools who squabble in their own filth. In this sense the movie does hold a bit of bias, but the overall depiction of the battle is quite accurate. It is very unfortunate how it is incredibly difficult to find this movie online or physical, and English copies are even less common. I have not found any conformation for this, but a few people claim that many of the actors in this movie where actually at the battle, and although this is possible, it is merely speculation.
