  • I strongly believe that at least the 1st part of this film has been inverted left to right. You have a left handed flute player and left handed Trombone players. All of the horsemen have their scabbards on their right hand side ie they will draw them with their left hand! Finally soldiers are wearing their medals on their right hand side. Surely theu are not wearing them for someone else!!
