handtohand22 will become famous soon enough
Anybody know where "Orders to Kill" (1958) has been buried. It is about the training of an assassin and the resulting conflict between conscience and duty. Very intense.


"The Longest Day" (1962) had my vote long before I saw it. It came out 17 years after the actual event.
When it was first released I was 15 years old and about to join the Royal Navy. One Saturday afternoon I was walking past the local cinema when the first show was getting out.
Some of the men leaving the cinema were crying their eyes out. This awakened in me the reality of war.
