Would like to start a thread to get info about WW2 movies I have not seen. Not the big ones like Band of Brothers or Stalingrad wich we probaly all have seen.

So do you think you know about a movie that is unknown to most people? Pls reply

(Moderator, pls move this to the general forum if Im off topic here)

'A bridge too far'

When Trumpets Fade....battle of the Hurtgen forest..dvd from HBO

I can also recommend "A Bridge Too Far"

Saving Pvt. Ryan...

The eagle has landed

I can't remember this movie but i've seen it somewhere about the british fighting against the germans in the desert , and the footage is real combat (real bullets real casualties) so sorry.

I liked the longest day and the great escape.

TY, gonna check them out

Battleground,The story of G.i Joe, both of these movies were made in durring the war and they are
very realistic.

Same here ... I rember the german bf109 I think it was diving towards the soldiers hideing behind their sherman tank, and they capture an oase wich the germans try to get back ... jesus if anyone can give me the name of this movie I would die happy !

I think the movie you're thinking about is called "Sahara" There are two versions, one from the late 40's with Humphrey Bogart as the "hero", and one movie from 1990 something, I can't remember who's acting in it though

Regarding the movie "Sahara" the remake is from 1995 starring James Belushi, I like both the original and the remake.

Other WWII movies I would recommend are "Tora Tora Tora" "Ironcross" "Battle for Midway" not so good,

Check out "A Dark Blue World", a recent WWII film done in Czechoslovakia. Great Spitfire footage.

Bridge over the river Kaqui ... or how ever u spell it

kwai

"Saints And Soldiers" about battle of the Bulge (maybe)

That looks awesome!

Saving Pvt. Ryan...

or it is : Searching for the Private Ryan
or the right one is: Saving Private Ryan

I don't know the right one. But the story is really really good and amazing.I still want to watch it again and again. The image of the game above the site is really the same commander of the rescue team ! .I think The story in this movie exactly.

its saving private ryan and its one of the most well known WWII movies ever made. plus its already been stated. I believe he was looking for not very well known movies.
