So many great movies to choose from...some of my favorites are:
All Quiet on the Western Front (Original)
Zulu
Das Boot
SPR
but in the end my choice would be Breaker Morant, which is in the running for my favorite movie of all genres.
"No; it was not quite so handsome. As to rules and regulations, we had no Red Book, and knew nothing about them. We were out fighting the Boers, not sitting comfortably behind barb-wire entanglements; we got them and shot them under Rule 303!"
-Harry Harbord "Breaker" Morant

do you know of a stockist for this film?
I have seen it on Amazon for comedy prices, but have had no luck finding it elsewhere.

Recommendations
Good topic.
I have got a bunch of war movies recommendations in this thread.
I thought that I would name some good war movies that I would like to recommend that I haven’t seen earlier in this thread.
Someone mention “The Unknown Soldier” from 1955 earlier and it’s a very good movie.
But personally I like better the remake of this movie from 1985
I don’t know if it’s available in the US, but it’s for sale in Scandinavia with English subtitle at https://www.cdon.com
Two another good war movies from Finland is “Ambush” and “Beyond Enemy Lines”
There hasn’t been made too many good Norwegian war movies but “The Last Lieutenant” is not bad at all.
The French “Captain Conan” is a good movie from WW1 and later against the reds in Russia.
British WW1 drama.
All the King's Men
The Trench
Some POW movies.
The McKenzie break
King Rat
Colditz
A few modern war movies.
Bravo Two Zero
Warriors
The Wild Geese
Uncommon Valor
Vietnam: Australian mini series
WW2 movies:
Piece of cake Miniseries about British airman in 39-40
Dieppe: Canadian miniseries
The way ahead: Good war flick with David Niven
Cockleshell heroes
The last bullet
The big red one –The Reconstruction
Sword of honour
Two men went to war
The night of the generals
The young lions
The Devils brigade
A midnight clear
El Alamein
Silent night
The bunker: Kind of a horror movie
The Heroes

Most of the movies are available in DVD format.
Of the movies that I have listed up only Warriors, Vietnam and The Heroes aren’t available in DVD as far as I know. If someone knows otherwise I would be grateful if they would let me know.
I buy my DVD from Play.uk, Play.us, Amazon, Amazon.uk, Amazon.ca and CDON in Scandinavia.

hi,
and this is my best list:
the thin red line
full metal jacket
the deep hunter ( Robert de niro & Michael Cimino, anyone had remebered it, camon!)
paths of glory
12 o'clock high
all quiet on the western front (1930)
patton (J. mason)
starship troopers
I due colonnelli (italian movie with alberto sordi)
tutti a casa (italian movie with alberto sordi)
the dam buster
... and many more that i don't remember now
PS.
SPR it's a bad film: too much eroic, characters so beautiful, it's only a pop corn movie, no thrue inside
