New releases are discussed from time to time and I was wondering what everyone's favorite war movie is. Focusing mainly on the 20th century I always enjoy "The Great Escape", "A Bridge Too Far", "Where eagles Dare".
I also enjoyed a fairly recent release called "Letters From Iwo Jima" which I thought was far better than "Flags of Our Fathers".
Of all of these, I would pick ZULU!
Here is my list:
ZULU
Von Ryan's Express
Saving Private Ryan
Gettysburg ( General Lee...I have no Division...)
A Bridge too Far
STALAG 17 (...I see, Six Hundred Funnymen...
Kelly's Heroes ((When we was in the Bocage Country, we were Assaulted by them Tigers!)
The Great Escape
Master and Commander
Das Boot
BattleGround
Stalingrad
Cross of Iron
The Blue Max (Of course...)
Memphis Belle
The Longest Day
Band of Brothers ( A mini Series; yet, an Epic)
Dawn Patrol
12 O'Clock High
Waterloo (The Prussians! The Prussians!)
Flyboys ( Ok, the Germans needed more than DrI's...)
Midway
Lawrence of Arabia (Hey? English?)
Battle of Britain
Battle of the Bulge
My Sleepers:
The Beast
Downfall
March or Die
Galipoli
GLORY
The Eagle has Landed
Enemy at the Gate
Seargent York
