My vote goes to; "Apocolypse Now" and "All Quiet On The Western Front" ( The original from the 30's ). Bigfifty.

I'll one up ya on that I have the seven tape series Vietnam A Television History from WGBH Boston that covers from 1945 through 1975. I think I paid $130.00 for it and it is well worth it.

Yeah, Benny if it's "TV" movies included too that's an excellent choice!(although B.O.B. did run in a theater in Normandy for its' premier...) Excellent series- I have the DVD set and the interviews with the real people of Easy are priceless.
