Thin Red Line got roobed by the accadamys

jsut becasue it was a art movie it didn't win any acadamy awards and get talked about

the over rated saving privates parts got all the talk

Thin Red Line was excellent just a master of art movie

Wow check this out-
To Hell and Back (1955) http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0048729/
Based on the autobiography of Audie Murphy who stars as himself in the film.

True-life account of the military career of Audie Murphy, the most decorated soldier in WWII. Native of Texas, he was placed in charge of his many younger siblings on the death of his mother and decided to join the military at the age of 18 to provide for them. His many acts of bravery and heroism during the US military advance through Italy, France and into Germany earn him increasing rank and responsibility as well as the respect of his comrades in arms. Eventually he receives two dozen of the highest medals the US and France can bestow, culminating in the awarding of the Congressional Medal of Honor.

Platoon is really good too... I'm kind of at a cross roads between it and Saving Private Ryan.

Not necessarily in this order.

When trumpets fade
Saving private Ryan
The thin red line
letters from iwo jima
Platoon
flags of our fathers
Born on the Fourth of July
Good Morning Vietnam
we were soldiers
full metal jacket
gardens of stone

Not to mention the much older war movies.

But take a look at this: http://www.franksreelreviews.com/shorttakes/reelrant/rantwar.htm

Agree with you. Band of Brothers is so damn good, and so is Saving private Ryan and Black Hawk Down, with allot more movies.

Wouldn't it be nice if we can download all these great war movies as a pack? Or is it somewhere already?????

Saving private Ryan. That movie really took me out of my seat in the movie theater and practically had me believing I was really in the battle with John Miller
