Does Schindler's List and The Grey Zone and Life is Beautiful count as WW2 war films?

For me it does, we should never forget history. Exclamation

In my collection I also have Varians War, Uprising, Out of the ashes, sobibor, the Nuremberg trial.
But before you look at these movies, you should first look at Conspiracy Shocked

One of my Favourites, and one not seen very often now is from the 70's and features Michael Caine, read the link below, its got one of the best endings of any film going.

Title :- Too Late the Hero

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Too-Late-Hero-Michael-Caine/dp/B000059MMT

ANOTHER ONE I LIKE THAT IS MORE OF A THRILLER IS FATHERLAND AN ADAPTION OF A NOVEL CAN'T EXACTLY REMEMBER BY WHO NOWADAYS BUT ITS A THEORETICAL MOVIE IN WHICH GERMANY WON THE WAR AND AMERICA SUED FOR PEACE. SET IN '65 IN GERMANY AND KENNEDY IS PRESIDENT. VERY INTERESTING STORY ABOUT AN SS DETECTIVE INVESTIGATING A MURDER BY HIGH RANKING OFFICIALS. SORRY FOR CAPS BUT DIDNT REAQLISE WAS ON AND TOPO LAZY TO REWRITE

Me to, and tigers are for real. Movie is filmed in exYugoslavia, apart from K Heroes, A bridge too far is great and full of good old armor.

Did someone watched ex yugoslav movies like ''Bitka na Neretvi'' with Yul Brynner, Orson Welles, Franco Nero, Curd Jurgens, or ''Sutjeska'' with Richard Burton as Tito?

Yes, 'Stalingrad' is very nice film and one of my favourites. Made on average budget it shows some good battle scenes (scene of AT defence in the almost open steppe is quite impressive Wink

) and bring some very well known 'pictures' about which you probably have read in books like: portraits of good and bad Germans, life(or rather lack of it Wink

) in field hospital, last plane that have flown-out from Pitomnik airfield and more...

There is one more film I would like to mention: 'Europa, Europa' about teenage Jewish boy who escaped annihilaton from the hands of Nazis by masquerading as an Aryan and even becaming a member of Hitler Youth in craze of II WW events Smile
