Re: The Movieforums Top 100 War Movies Countdown

Casablanca is one of my favourite films, but like others, I just couldn't put it in a war list. It's a romance / drama film.

I've never seen downfall, which I should probably rectify pretty soon.

Re: The Movieforums Top 100 War Movies Countdown

Inglorious basterds is Tarantino at his worst. I rewatched it recently and it's really not very good. The first 40 minutes or so is pretty watchable but it descends into gratuitous rubbish. Just...

The Cranes are Flying is a masterpiece. Urusevsky's cinematography, Kolatazov's direction. Simply a stunning piece of cinema that I would give my right arm to watch in a theatre. It was my number 4....

Shame he died so young. I think he would have transformed into a really interesting actor with lots of roles suited to him in his later years.

Re: The Movieforums Top 100 War Movies Countdown

I watched the Great Dictator for a HoF countdown. I enjoyed it quite a bit but didn't consider it for this list.

I've not heard of 'The Best Years of Our Lives'.

No votes.

Eugh, see for me that is the epitome of everything cheesy and awful that is Hollywood.

Ha, no nothing like that. Just more along the lines that this film takes on politically (according to that review). Propaganda is everywhere but some is much more dangerous than others.
