Whats Your Opinion?

My opinion is that you have a very good list there.
Two of my favorites aren't included in your list.
Das Boot (Original German w/English sub-titles)
The Deer Hunter
I might also add;
The Red Badge of Courage (Audie Murphy)
Birth of a Nation
Run Silent Run Deep
U-571
Crimson Tide
BTW, I spent 9 years in the Navy on US Nuclear Submarines so I'm sort of partial to the sub movies.
g-day!
