I love these films especially the ones that were made before America entered the war.

Right now I am watching "A Yank in the RAF"

[image loading]


Now obviously the storyline is usually the same the American could careless about the war but by the end he realizes what is at stake, the norm of pushing the American opinion towards supporting Britain and the Allies against Germany.

Wish Turner Classic Movies would release more of these movies to DVD so I could collect them.

do you recommend this movie at all?

WWII movies that I would recommend are: Ip Man, The Counterfeiters, The Boy in The Stripped Pajamas, Valkyrie, Pearl Harbor

edit: didn't notice you meant movies that were MADE during WWII about the war?

Lol, either you're trolling or you have really really bad taste in movies.

Or a really really big Ben Affleck fan, which I don't anyone actually is.

Blog title cut-off had me anticipating WWII Holocaust.

Very disappointed.
If you watch Godzilla backwards it's about a benevolent lizard who helps rebuild a city and then moonwalks into the ocean.

Not really a movie, but Band of Brothers was one of the best WW2 shows I've ever seen.

I still haven't seen that.

The longest day was pretty good, the Nazis weren't portrayed as mind-less evildoers like in some American films. I also liked "Sink the Bismarck!", "Battle of Britain", and "Stalingrad" especially.

And yes, Casablanca, some awesome scenes in that classic.
Im pretty good at whistling with my hands, especially when Im holding a whistle.

I second Band of brothers, and I don't know if you want historic movies or just WWII setting so recommending Where eagles dare and The dirty dozen.

There is another Band of Brothers series in the works and it follows the marines in the Pacific War (YouTube it since there's a trailer). I thought Miracle at St. Anna was pretty good.

HBO removed the trailer. It is called "The Pacific" scheduled for March 2010, god knows it's been in production for years now.


EDIT: Nvm found it while it is still available:

A Bridge Too Far and The Longest Day are the best among the older films.

Saving Private Ryan is an absolutely amazing film as well, in my opinion.

Definitely watch Tora Tora Tora.

One of the best, if not the best, American WW2 film.
