Everyone speaks highly of Winters.
Band of Brothers must be the greatest war motion picture in history, in my opinion. Think of great ones like Das Boot and take it a level higher.
The book, "Band of Brothers", by WW2 historian Stephen Ambrose is the basis for the movie.
Did you guys know that all of the weapons which appear in Band of Brothers were actual WWII weapons?
Winters worked for honesty in the creating of Band of Brothers, including the tragic atrocities. He had his own act of war which haunted him in guilt - even into old age - included in the movie. Winters had insisted that the major events which effected Easy Company all be told. At the risk of great controversy, the decision was made to include a speech by a German general which was very moving on the hearts of Easy Company, including Dick Winters:

Such is the great courage that they say was common is Easy Company and its leader, Dick Winters.
They were a part of the generation from all the combatant countries who would return home to build a better world for our future.
Dick Winters did his duty and his part with distinction in a war full of many brave warriors.
Salute!
