my pers. faves:
"The Guns of Navarone" - a brilliant book made into a brilliant film about a special unit of Allies guerilla-like infiltrating an island in the hands of the germans in WWII to destroy the "Guns of Navarone" (really big guns ;-) making an invasion via sea or air impossible) due to the characters it transfers some "Joe" feeling as every character has so special abilities (one is in for sabotage/demolition, one is a famous mountain climber etc.) "All quiet on the Western Front" - classic! "Deathwatch" - a really cool war/horror movie about the madness, evil and horror in the trenches of WWI. Absolutely great!

Apacolypse Now!
Full Metal Jacket Platoon Saving Private Ryan City of Heaven (I wish this were the first of a trilogy about the Crusades) El Cid (a fifty-year old movie based on a 400-year old story, and it's still relevant). Braveheart Starship Troopers (okay, people will laugh at this one more than anything, but the idea of a society that has obviously given up a lot of its freedoms getting wrapped up in a jingoistic patriotic fervor after suffering a major attack is one that deserves a little thought despite the fact it has giant bugs). |
