Historical Movies

[00Kevin]

Well, for he final project for U.S history, I had a few choices, but you know what I chose:

watch 5 historical movies and write a paper on them. They must take place in the 30's-2000's and include 2 accurate and 2 inaccurate displays of historical events. also I can only do 1 per each era/event. here are what I will probubly do:

WW2-Patton
Korea-Mash
Vietnam-Hamburgerhill
Dr Strangelove or how I.....blah blah blah


I'm hoping one of you guys can suggest a good movie besides what i've put, I have a few in mind, but I'ld like to see something new, I'm all ears


(and BTW, what era is dr. strangelove? cold war?)

Patton is definitely a good one.

Strangelove would be Cold War.

Erm...Oliver Stone's JFK would be a good one for inaccurate (that's debatable, I know, but Stone is rather...revisionist).

That's all that really occurs to me so far.
