Title: Hannibal, The Man, The Myth, The Mystery
Channel: BBC Two (BBC2)
Date: 14th May 2006
Source: TVRip
Codec and format: XVID.avi (I think)
Category: Documentary / Educational
Description:
Documentary. Companion documentary (432 MB) charting the rise and fall of Hannibal, companion to a made-for-TV film Hannibal; uses clips of soldiers and battles from that film. Historian Adrian Goldsworthy discusses Hannibal. Historians analyze his psychological and military advantages and disadvantages; Other experts (a professor taking his students over the alps; an elephant keeper; a historical weapons expert; Prof Richard Miles abt Third Punic War) discuss his logistic requirements; overhead (balloon) views of the terrain; computer graphics showing his battle strategy. Clip from Schwarzkopf crediting Hannibal for deceptive tactics and outflanking moves in Gulf War. Closing titles cut off abruptly; believe that opening titles are also cut off. This is from an old torrent no longer available online. The main film is also not available online. Not 100% sure about the codec, but it is definitely an AVI file and works with all players. Watched the whole thing, seems an OK copy.
