Default Favorite WWII Movie

This is the Memorial Day weekend, and several movies will be on television.

What is your favorite WWII movie, and why?

I'll go first.

"The Best Years Of Our Lives", with Myrna Loy, Federick March, Dana Andrews, Theresa Wright and Harold Russel, (a real WWII veteran who lost the use of his arms). Also with Kathy O'Donnell and Hogey Carmichael.

I like it because it shows the difficulties adjusting back to civilian life, and it has great acting. Bette Davis said it was the best film ever made, but then she was in love with the director, the great, Billy Wilder.

Playing on TCM, Monday at 10:30 PM.
