Lots of goodies in your list but I think you would have to make room for Das Boat directed by Wolfgang Petersen in any list.

Yes, yes, great list. Also agree that “The Train” and
“Stalag 17″ are two absolute must see WWii movies. I suggest you put Stalag 17 at the top of your list.

I am looking for a movie with the following scene:
Nazi: Where are the Jews?
Woman: What Jews?
Nazi: [slaps woman]
Woman: Lord Jesus Help!

does anyone recognize what movie this is from?

great blog and comments; but you said Kelly’s Heroes (1970) was reminiscent of Three Kings (1999)… a bit of a time reversal there…

Otherwise a nice collection of movies…

I agree with some on the list – but in my opinion no top WW2 all time great movie list can be without classics like -The Dam Busters; A bridge too far; The Longest Day; Rommell,the Desert Fox; Enemy Below; to name but a few – and any list (despite some comments) just has to include The Great Escape – Anyone who disputes its merits, just doesn’t understand movies, or WW2, or most likely – both.

One of the best Nazi movies I’ve ever seen is the Russian “Seventeen Moments of Spring”. Ok, technically you might call it a long-mini series, but what it really is, is a very long movie about a Russian spy posing as an SS Colonel. A fair number of the recognizable big Nazi names show up in the show. Almost has a documentary-realism style quality.

Das Boot is probably my favorite standalone WWII movie.

Great list, but you’re missing Soldier of Orange.

My old father (83 years) is looking for a war movie.
He thinks the actor is Gregory Peck, and all he remerbers is that there were zeven brothers in the war, and that Gregory Peck is acting for a moment as a turkey.???

Can anybody help me?

Thanks in advance.

BTW, the greatest thing about the Nazis is they represented a pureness of evil hard to equal today- complete with their sharp and sinister Hugo Boss uniforms.
