Do you agree with our list? FLAGS OF OUR FATHERS – Clint Eastwood – 2006 With this in mind, we started thinking of our favourite WWII battles from the world of cinema. In very different ways, these movies all tell important and poignant stories that need to be heard.Posted by Phil on in action, All, Film, News, thriller, war | 0 commentsĪnthropoid, in cinemas this Friday, ends spectacularly with one of the most realistic and brutal reconstructions of urban siege warfare seen in a long time. Fortunately, a number of great new war flicks found a perfect balance between the need for entertainment and the necessity to inform. Sure, it's Hollywood so these films must also entertain us with bombs, shootings, and romantic heroism, but filmmakers should not forget the severity of their topic. Make them intensely personal so that we, who live in peace, may in some way grasp what it means to live there. Filmmakers in the field of the warfare genre should tell the tales of people living in warzones like Syria. We can learn much from the news and fine war journalism, but we see so many of those images that they become devoid of meaning. Troops are perhaps no longer fully deployed in Iraq or Afghanistan, and the First and Second World Wars are far behind us, but that does not mean nothing is going on, for example in places like the Middle-East that we should know about. Sad as it may be, there are and always will be gripping war stories to tell.
