Favorite WWII Movie

[MJAlltheWay24]

The Bridge on the River Kwai is awesome.

 

I really enjoy this movie as well, but I was watching a documentary on it once on the History channel or something and from the sounds of it, the movie is very innacurate. But I still like it.

Anyone seen Escape from Sobiborg?

 

Or The Pianist?

To Hell And Back

Patton

We Were Soldiers

Your about 24 years too late.

Probably would have to be Saving Private Ryan for me.

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. We Were Soldiers was based in 1965 in North Vietnam...still a great movie though.

[The Professor]

Patton

Schindler's List

Saving Private Ryan

Diary of Anne Frank

Bridge On The River Kwai

This is a good list. Add Tora! Tora! Tora! and The Longest Day and it's even better.

 

Saving Private Ryan is the best of the list. That movie got jabbed at the Academy Awards by politics. How in the world could Shakesphere In Love win the Best Picture that year???

"A Bridge Too Far"

Saving Private Ryan

The Bridge on the River Kwai

Victory

Schindler's List

Tora! Tora! Tora!

Patton

Schindler's List, I guess.

 

But I'd like to see the Catch-22 movie featuring Alan Arkin from the 1960's (I believe). I loved the book.

[The Professor]

My favorite comedy war movie (but it was based on the Korean War, shortly after WW II) was MASH. The football game is hilarious.

[Mack The Knife]

"The Bridge On The River Kwai"

"Stalag 17"

"The Longest Day"

"Saving Private Ryan"

"Das Boot"

"Schindler's List"

"Das Boot"

This was the one about the German submarine, right? IMO it was way too drawn out and long, although I realize that was part of the theme, of how long and exhausting the war can be.

I may get tar and feathered for this one, but "It's a Beautiful Life" won several awards. I am not much into foreign films but this one was good.
