Soldaat Van Oranje (Soldier of Orange) DVD + Film Soundtrack CD (1977)
Very good Region 0 DVD of the cult war film.
With this DVD you will get a non-factory-pressed disc of the Rogier Van Otterloo score (from the vinyl release) in a clear plastic wallet (no artwork). This album has never had a CD release and the price reflects the rarity of this vinyl album.
The film (1977, dir. Paul Verhoeven) starred Rutger Hauer, Jeroen Krabbé, Edward Fox and Susan Penhaligon.
Erik (Rutger Hauer), Alex (Derek de Lint), Gus (Jeroen Krabbe) and their friends are all students at a Dutch university in the late 1930s. When the Nazi occupation begins, the members of the group all respond in different ways, with some joining the ranks of the German army, others fighting for the resistance, some escaping to England and still others falling victim to collaboration or Nazi torture.
The film, based on the autobiographical novel ‘Soldaat van Oranje’ by Erik Hazelhoff Roelfzema, follows the diverging adventures of the friends throughout the war, from the beginning of the occupation all the way through to the liberation.
