Band of Brothers episode 6, “Bastogne”, is credited as one of the most powerful and evocative installments in the celebrated miniseries. Centering on medic Eugene Roe as he and Easy Company navigate the ferocious conflict around the titular Belgian town in 1944, the episode is simultaneously a vivid recreation of the physical hardships facing Allied soldiers in the Second World War and a heartbreaking reminder of the emotional cost of conflict. While the episode undoubtedly works in isolation, one of “Bastogne”‘s more unexpected legacies is the way in which it corrected a previous cinematic disappointment.
