The USS North Carolina (BB-55) My all-time favorite warship. As an elementary school student in North Carolina, I donated nickels and dimes to save this ship back in the early sixties.

Ten Best World War Films

From Screen Junkies.

Okay, there are some WWI ones in here, but most are WWII, so here goes:

1.  ALL'S QUIET ON THE WESTERN FRONT-- (1930)  World War I
2.  PATTON (1970)
3.  THE LONGEST DAY (1962)

4.  BRIDGE OVER RIVER KWAI (1957)
5.  FROM HERE TO ETERNITY (1953)
6.  THE GREAT ESCAPE (1963)
7.  THE CAINE MUTINY (1954)

8.  AFRICAN QUEEN (1951)  World War I.  I loved it when Bogart was harassing the hippos and was really grossed out by the leaches.
9.  BEST YEARS OF OUR LIVES (1946)
10.  SANDS OF IWO JIMA (1949)

I'm Not Sure If I Ever Saw "Best Years of Our Lives."  --GreGen

  1. The moral dilemnas in Bridge made it a special "war" movie...;)
