What is your favorite WWII movie?

[Aberdeen Love]

Just wondering what everyone's favorite WWII movie is, vintage or not! Mine is Enemy At The Gate. It is Jude Law's hottest movie before he became not hot after the nanny incident. And the chick Tanya who is a sniper for Russia is so badass. You go tough Russian chicks! Any movie set during this explosive time period is awesome though and I wanted to get some opinions so I can check out a few I haven't seen already!

For The Boys ;o)

I think The Black Dahlia is cool, or even The Good Shepherd.

@flygrl9 Was Red Tails pretty era correct? The electronic music in one of the trailers throws me off!

@Edson, for the most part the airplane stuff was correct minus a few computer graphics.  I am sure they didn't fly that many planes for the movie, as the cost to fly those planes are outragous.

Red tails was good. The acting was oook. I was really looking forward to the dogfighting, which was AMAZING!. The M262 jet fighters really got me.

I would have to say the best World War II movie I have seen to date is Saving Private Ryan. My favorite Civil War movie is Gods and Generals.
