Favorite War Movies
What are you favorite War/War related movies? I'm a big war movie fan.
Here is my partial list in no particular order with some foreign made war movies mixed in the list. Some can be found and watched on youtube with subtitles. Let's hear some of your favorites! The Pianist Schindler's List Enemy at the Gate Braveheart Life is Beautiful Das Boot U-571 K-19 The Widowmaker Pearl Harbor Apocolypse Now Full Metal Jacket Come and See (warning brutal!) The Hurt Locker Saving Private Ryan Black Book Hotel Rwanda Inglorious Basterds The Deer Hunter Letters from Iwo Jima The Last Samurai Master and Commander Platoon Cross of Iron (1977) Ivan's Childhood The Winter War Stalingrad Ballad of a Soldier Burnt by the Sun Stalingrad/Dogs do you want to live forever? The Dawns Here are Quiet (1972) Dad (2004) |

I'd say the one movie that had the most impact on me is "The Dawns Here are Quiet" since I was 8 or 9 first time I saw it.

Not so much a "movie" but Band of Brothers is one of my favorites.

I enjoyed that series a lot myself. I watched the whole thing over the course of 2 days when I bought the whole set.

U-571 is right up there, because of the history behind it. I've always been partial to Shenandoah, also because of the history behind it, and because of the loss that Charlie Anderson suffered.

Patton & Saving Private Ryan are in a class of their own for me.
honorable mention. Empire of the Sun. others, that haven't been mentioned. The Guns of Navarone, Von Ryan's Express, The Great Escape, and in an entirely different class, but still one of my favs... Kelly's Heroes.

Watch We Were Soldiers and there will be a long silence afterwards as you sit there and take many deep breaths.
