CPT Crunch Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0063056/ Lee Marvin in "Hell in the Pacific" https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0058648/ The 1964 original "Thin Red Line" far superior to the remake. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Props Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 Hell in the Pacific is a great movie! Especially in regards to the fact that both Lee Marvin and Toshio Mifune served and fought in the Pacific theater during the war. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kestrel79 Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 My Dad would give me movie recommendations to rent from the Library on VHS. Some of my favorites were Tora Tora Tora, and Midway. As for "newer" movies, Letters from Iwo Jima was really good, better than Flags for sure. Any love for Windtalkers with Nic Cage? "Yahhhhzeeeeee!" 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I LOVE this movie and not just because of the Mustang scene (which obviously doesn't hurt the film). Its probably my favorite Steven Spielberg film besides "Saving Private Ryan" and "Jurassic Park". Good moovie. "Empire of the Sun" was and autobiographic narrative of writer James Ballard's childhood. I read other books from him. Very good writing and definitely non-conventional, highly recommended! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
