Chuck Dixon used to have a website (hopefully soon to return) which listed his favorite war movies. For him and everyone else who likes war films, here are the best war films chosen by members of the military (from USAA Magazine poll, reposted by John McCaslin):
1. “Twelve O’Clock High”
2. “The Bridge on the River Kwai”
3. “The Longest Day”
4. “Patton”
5. “The Deer Hunter”
6. “Saving Private Ryan”
7. “We Were Soldiers”
I haven’t even SEEN Twelve O’Clock High or the Deer Hunter. I suppose I should.
