Additionally some old boomer type stuff:

The Bridge on the River Kwai

African Queen



Had to watch the bridge one in 7th grade

Social studies teacher was kind of a british homo

But it did have Obi Wan Kenobi in it


The Red Badge of Courage is one that sticks out in my mind from the grade school days. IIRC, John Boy Walton played the Union soldier.

Wow - I didn't know that there was even a movie of the Red Badge of Courage.

2 that should be watched One true story and one that has more truth in it than most would like it to.

The true story is Mr Jones.

The one that is too close to true to be funny is Wag the Dog
