WW2 movies

Escape to victory currently on itv 4, does that count?? ;-))

I'm not sure if Summerbee has ever mentioned that he played with Pele.

Can somebody please confirm

Forgot about Valkyrie ....if you can get past Tom Cruise it's really good .....

Seeing as he's in about 90-odd percent of the scenes, that's a bit tricky!

Since when is Raiders a WW2 movie? Yes, it's got Nazi's in it, but it's set mid 1930's.

Fair enough. 1936 is too early.

How about Hanover Steet. Wait. That was more an excuse for Harrison Ford to lay in bed with Lesley-Anne Down and give her the high hard one. ;)

If we are talking about films made during WW2 -
Weht The Day Well?
Pimpernel Smith
Freedom Radio
Cottage To Let
Atlantic Convoy
Casablanca
One Of Our Aircraft Is Missing
The Day Will Dawn
Mrs. Miniver
The Lion Has Wings
In Which We Serve
First Of The Few
Unpublished Story
Advantures Of Tartu

must say I do like Talking Pictures channel 328, these films were all produced really as propaganda films as the outcome of WWII was far from certain, could add Sherlock Holmes films, Arthur Askey and George Formby as well

And Will Hay. If you haven't seen "The Goose Steps Out" do seek it out. Classic Brit wartime comedy. My history teacher at school was obsessed with it.

Went the Day Well is a personal favourite, although I'll admit i've not heard of some in your list above.

Also, a very good recent addition to the pantheon on WW2 movies is Fury.

I liked Hacksaw Ridge, even if littered with Americans.
