Battle Extraordinaire

Yes, we're bringing that back too.

Since MM mentioned it in our tally of great war films, here's our post on Paths of Glory from 2018.

Does anyone know of any other great WWI films? We can only think of a few.

Blue Max is not the answer.

We're talking about grueling trench warfare, people.

Someone really ought to make a film about Patton's 1st Tank Brigade.

Battle Extraorinaire

Paths of Glory:



A Kubrick masterpiece, probably the most realistic representation of Trench Warfare on film. Remember, this movie was made when millions of veterans of the trenches were still alive. 

The cinematography is just masterful. What else would one expect from Kubrick?
