Alexander Nevsky
Not a movie but still god tier
Kingdom of Heaven.
If they ever made a good movie about the 1565 Siege of Malta at about the same quality, I'd put that up top.
What's the best WWII flickie?
...
The Mission (1974)
Movie isn't even good as far as storytelling goes, let alone historicity.
Hard to say, but I'll have to go with Where Eagles Dare.
New russian version of Stalingrad is pretty lit
Hollywood tier garbage. This one however is good:
Afghan Breakdown. Absolutely incredible even if you don't know Italian or Russian.
I couldn't say if it was my favourite, but Fires On The Plain is amazing.
Boer history is so obscure. This isn't straight up history, but it's about white South Africans and has some cool battles with niggers.
>inb4 r*ddit autism about how this film whose point is to capture live events is racist even while they constantly apologize for colonialism
>inb4 b-b-b-but wikipedia says its racist
Best TLDR of post colinial africa out there
Either A Bridge Too Far, The Longest Day or Battleground!. All feature veterans of the particular battles as actors in their respective films. My personal favorite is Battleground! but YMMV.
Probably Lawrence of Arabia.
Best Best film: Shaving Ryans' privates.
Best docu: africa addio
Best series: the Pacific or band of brothers
