Straffo is 100% right, "Le vieux fusil" ...

(Old Gun, The (1975) (USA)
Vengeance One by One (1975) (USA) (video title)

is awesome, really good movie,well written and amazing acting.

the final flamethrower scene is harrowing...

Another good one based on actual events is the movie "Is Paris Burning?".  I've seen the movie and read the book.  The movie doesn't stray far from the book.

What's the one that has the American and Canadians trainging together for a secret mission?  That was a pretty good one
