Enemy at the Gates: The Battle for Stalingrad

Enemy at the Gates is a 2001 French-American war film written and directed by Jean-Jacques Annaud and based on William Craig's 1973 nonfiction book "", which describes the events surrounding the Battle of Stalingrad in the winter of 1942 and 1943.
 The film's main character is a fictionalized version of sniper Vasily Zaytsev, a Hero of the Soviet Union during World War II.

The Hot Gates is the title of a collection of essays by William Golding, author of "Lord of the Flies".
 The collection is divided into four sections: "People and Places", "Books", "Westward Look" and "Caught in a Bush".
 Published in 1965, it includes pieces that Golding had written over the previous ten years.
 "Caught in a Bush" contains his childhood recollections "Billy the Kid" and "The Ladder and the Tree", and his essay "Fable", which answered questions about "Lord of the Flies" appears in "Books".
 "Fable" is based on lectures Golding gave at UCLA in California and he hoped it would answer "some of the standard questions which students were asking" (7).
 The book starts out with an essay on the Battle of Thermopylae, which can be translated from ancient Greek to English as "hot gates", thus giving it the title.
 The Hot Gates are famous for being the place where Leonidas I made his last stand against the Persian army under Xerxes I.

The Book of Gates is an Ancient Egyptian funerary text dating from the New Kingdom.
 It narrates the passage of a newly deceased soul into the next world, corresponding to the journey of the sun through the underworld during the hours of the night.

 Each gate is associated with a different goddess, and requires that the deceased recognise the particular character of that deity.
 The text implies that some people will pass through unharmed, but that others will suffer torment in a lake of fire.
