BoB was a series, but was based on a true story. SPR was based on true EVENTS. The storyline was real, but the characters were different, and not everything they went through happened to THEM, but it happened in the war.

It's so sad in SPR when Captain Miller dies!
"James..James....Earn This.......Earn It."
You guys are all forgetting WHEN TRUMPETS FADE! Its my favourite, right up there with SPR and BoB....
My List of good old war movies:
Anzio (Not so realistic, but a very fun movie)
Bridge At Remagen (First use of shaky cam technique, good film)
Guns Of Navarone (Nice adventure film)
The Great Escape (The classic)
Von Ryan's Express (Sinatra and a train full of P.O.W's...GREAT fun)

The definition of a war film.
Name more than one film that doesn't have faceless enemies.

Thats 4 movies, out of, what? 600 war films?
Thin red line? Hardly.
The rest are all eastern front....The point about all those movies is to show how inhumane the fighting was there, therefore you need to base it on two sides....They don't count. biggrin:
