My best war movies of all time. I'm a sucker for "Top Ten" lists. In no particular order:

1. All Quiet On The Western Front (1932)
2. Lawrence Of Arabia
3. Der Untergang English title: "Downfall"
4. Das Boot (Director's Cut)
5. The Best Years Of Our Lives
6. Glory
7. Apocolypse Now (Redux)
8. Paths Of Glory
9. The Burmese Harp (this one made me cry) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Burmese_Harp_(film)
10. The Thin Red Line - far superior, IMHO, to Saving Private Ryan, which I consider a CGI Sargeant Rock Comic)

Honorable mentions:
~Breaker Morant
~Gallipoli
~The Cruel Sea
~The Great Escape
~J'Accuse http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/J%27accuse_(1919_film)
