Italians and Russians collaborate against the Germans. Incredible footage w/ cast of thousands, it seemed. Italian film made in the Ukraine under Soviet guidance. Really different perspective from the Italian POV.

I endorse BIGFELLA's comments about the German language "Stalingrad". Very good until some starving Germans uncover a warehouse of riches, as I recall. Hard to believe on that point but otherwise seemed to brutally convey the sense of hopelessness within the kessel.

All three would be tough to impossible to find.
I own Stalingrad. It can usually be found on Amazon or eBay.
