At that time, German Marshal Feng Delun tried to make the last big counterattack on the western front of Europe, only to be intercepted by the American airborne infantry division in Basagni town. The Germans surrounded the town and threatened the American army to surrender, but the American army would rather die than surrender and finally won the final victory. The biggest feature of this film is that it uses a group of ordinary actors to play the leading role of the film. The writer's personality is distinct, and the director veerman is also very delicate, so it can vividly reproduce the wartime atmosphere. The whole film was shot in the western plateau of Europe. The natural beauty covered with white clouds and the cold climate enhance the drama tension through excellent photography. The final battle scene is very compact and wonderful, and it can be called a first-class battle movie. 2. The Fox in the Desert 195 1 Director: General Alvin Rommel, who is known as the "Fox in the Desert" in khenry hathaway, is the marshal of the Axis countries in North Africa. The soldiers of the North African army he led, with the help of God, seemed invincible, which troubled the Allies. 1In the bloody sand-mad battle in Libya in June, 942, the Germans captured 33,000 British troops with15,000 troops, which made Rommel famous. Britain and the United States agreed to jointly launch a counter-offensive in North Africa. In May 1943, British Marshal Montgomery led five times as many tanks as the German army in a devastating battle in the desert. Then Rommel knew that Hitler's luck had run out and there was nothing he could do. He returned to Germany and committed suicide under the guarantee of the safety of his family. With his impressive performance, james mason is now recognized as one of the best biographies of war heroes in Hollywood. 3. bridge on the river kwai 1957 Director: David Lane, a classic anti-war film directed by DavidLean, is one of the best war films in film history. During World War II, 600 officers and men led by British Colonel Nicholson were captured in Singapore. The Japanese army transported them to a prison camp in the jungle of Myanmar and forced them to build a bridge on the Guangxi River where the prison camp was located to connect the railway transportation between Bangkok and Yangon. According to the Geneva Treaty, Nicholson resolutely refused to let officers work, even though he was held in a dark room alone. Colonel Saito, the battalion commander, was forced to take a step back and let Nicholson take back the command of his opponent. Unexpectedly, when the British soldiers were building the bridge, the American major Heath who escaped from the prison camp was ordered to come back and raid the bridge. The production of the whole film is rigorous and the plot is eye-catching, which is different from the general prisoner of war escape film. The film won seven awards, including Oscar for Best Picture, Director and Actor. 4. "The Longest Day" 1962 Director: AndrewMarton, the largest war movie in American film history, describes the history of the Normandy landing from the perspectives of the allied forces and the Germans, as well as the important layout and reaction of the two sides during this period. The technique is plain and the scene is realistic, as if the whole event is reproduced in front of the audience. And in details, both the general who made the decision and the soldiers who landed were vividly written, and the results were quite rare. The cast is also unprecedented, attracting many first-line superstars who became popular in the 1960s to attend the grand event. Pop singer paul anka also played a touching role and wrote a magnificent theme song for the film. 5. Battle of Herberg 1965 Director: Kennan Nagin described a tank battle between the Allies and the Germans at the end of World War II. The German army led by General Heath, played by robert shaw, tried to make a full-scale counterattack against the allied forces on Christmas Eve, but the plan failed. It was discovered by General Chen Kai, played by henry fonda, and both sides fought to the death. The original wide-screen movie can quite show the war momentum of this giant system, and it will definitely be discounted when viewed on a small screen. However, director ken annakin's narrative technique is still fluent, and a group of senior actors also perform hard, which keeps the film quite entertaining. 6. The Battle of Britain 1969 Director: GuyHamilton's large-scale war film, shot by British film elites, tried to reproduce an important history of their motherland during World War II. In the style of documentary drama, the film describes that 1940 German Nazis attacked Britain's densely populated metropolis, which caused great losses to Britain, but also aroused the British people's resistance against Germany, especially the pilots of the British army rushed to fight back. In the film, the air raid scene of the fighter plane covering the sky is spectacular and realistic, and the effect is shocking. Among the many shining red stars, michael caine and Kenneth Moore play more, while Susanna Yu, who plays Borma's wife, is more romantic. Besides, Lawrence Oliver, as a tactically brilliant jazz, his performance is impressive. 7. "Barton: Franklin. Director Schaffner" 1970: At the beginning of the film, the picture was full of an American star-spangled banner. Barton, wearing a military uniform, stepped onto the podium in front of the national flag and was giving a speech on "The Greatest American Soldier" to the camera. It goes without saying that a famous soldier has great spirit. There is a controversial scene in the film, which describes Barton slapping a cowardly soldier while visiting the wounded hospital. His creative inspiration should come from Bilek's anti-war business card PathofGlory. The film won seven awards, including the Oscar for Best Picture, but George C. Scott, the best actor, publicly rejected the honor. He said he didn't perform for the Oscar, and he was as tough as Barton. 8. "Tiger! Tiger! Tiger! "(Tora! Tora. Tora. ) 1970 Director: A quarter of a century after the end of World War II, former rivals: the United States and richard fleischer, who loves life, finally sat down calmly and discussed the causes of this human catastrophe with movies. This film is jointly produced by the American film industry, which loves cats and lives. The Japanese originally wanted to invite master Akira Kurosawa to take the helm, but later the Japanese drama was directed by Kinji Fukasaku. The whole film presents the historical truth of the Pearl Harbor incident from the development of the United States and Japan at the same time, and explains the ins and outs of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor in a similar case review way. Therefore, it is not as dramatic and impactful as other large-scale war movies, but the rigorous production can let the audience know the history, and the Japanese bombing of Pearl Harbor is also realistic and touching, and won the best special effects Oscar. 9. Halfway) 1976 Director: JackSmight World War II was divided into two battlefields: East and West. Hollywood has made many war films set on the western front, but few films took place on the eastern front. This large-scale war film made in the 1970s is one of the representative works. The plot of this film focuses on the battle of midway between the United States and the navy who loves cats and lives. Among many films of the same kind in that year, the film treated in the traditional war film style was not a very outstanding work. The director specially joined son of the general's Puffy Cats in the United States, and the plot of the hit drama Girl Who Loves Life is rather mediocre. However, the superstar lineup allows today's audience to watch the previous generation of superstars again, and the naval battle scene is really realistic, which makes the film quite interesting. 10, savingprivateryan)1998+0998 Director: Steven Allan Spielberg Spielberg actually made several war films before this, including: 194 1, EmpireoftheSun and Syndra's list. This film describes1June 6, 944, when the British and American allied forces landed in Normandy. During this day's attack, the staff who issued the death notice from the Allied headquarters found that three brothers named Ryan were killed, and only the youngest son Ryan was still fighting in the European continent. If he dies, the whole family will be extinct. General Marshall, commander of the Allied Forces, immediately ordered the team led by Tom Hanks to go to the French battlefield to search for him. This film is considered to be one of the most authentic war films of all time, and the Motion Picture Association of America has designated it as "an extremely violent war film". However, many World War II veterans spoke highly of the film, calling it "the most authentic film reflecting World War II", especially the spectacular scene of rebuilding the Normandy landing in 26 minutes. The above are from Baidu, and some have never seen them. But General Patton, Saving Private Ryan and tank battle are all good. In addition, Schindler's List is very touching, although it needs a little discount in authenticity, and there is the most famous line in World War II movies: "Although the Soviet Union is big, we are in no way back, because Moscow is behind us! "Just from the point of this film, there is" The Destruction of the Empire ",a rare film from Germany featuring Hitler and reflecting World War II, which is very good. The recently released Assassination of Hitler, although criticized by many fans of World War II, is still worth watching, because at least Rommel didn't participate in it to attract the audience. . . That's about it. These movies are very famous, and the online resources are also very rich. You can find it yourself.
