A feature-length film, ''Enemy at the Gates'' (2001), starring Jude Law as Zaytsev, was based on part of William Craig's non-fiction book ''Enemy at the Gates: The Battle for Stalingrad'' (1973), which includes a "sniper's duel" between Zaytsev and a ''Wehrmacht'' sniper school director, Major Erwin König. ==Early life== Zaytsev was born in Yeleninskoye, Orenburg Governorate in a peasant family of Russian ethnicity〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Vasily Zaytsev )〕 and grew up in the Ural Mountains, where he learned marksmanship by hunting deer and wolves with his grandfather and older brother. He brought home his first trophy at the age of 12: a wolf that he shot with a single bullet from his first personal rifle, a large single-shot Berdan, which at the time he was barely able to carry on his back. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Vasily Zaytsev」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
