We might regret that. I think Jerry Lewis was aiming for something later achieved along the lines of “Life Is Beautiful.” There’s a reason he just didn’t want the public to see his attempt as an unfortunate misfire that may have trivialized the Nazi subject matter.

I don’t know if it classifies as a war movie, but “They shall not grow old” was pretty good.

Also liked Patton.

You have never seen The African Queen?? Oh my. You must go and watch it. It’s a classic. And BTW Boggie’s last picture was The Harder They Fall.

It’s not really a war flick but Comrade X has Hedy Lamarr driving around in a tank and that is something few other war flicks have. :)

A few from Andrzej Wajda: Kanal,Katyn ...................... Katyn should be a film to watch in schools, like Schindler’s List. It should be part of the curriculum of the Holocaust studies. LOL, followed by “Missiom to Moscow”.

See #33, #34, and #70. You are the fourth. It’s one of my favorites, too.
