Favorite Wartime/Western Movies?

Hondo: Movie based upon Louis L'amour's novel The Gift of Cochise starring John Wayne.

The Lost Battalion: Great made for TV movie, but definetly worth a rent if not a buy. This deals with a platoon that gets stuck due to the Nazi regime. The men suffer great casualties not only from the Germans, but also from friendly mortors.

Dances With Wolves: Kevin Kostner does a great job in this movie and all the characters are believable. The Sioux kick the shit out of the Pawnee..

Platoon: Common..you gotta love this movie. Willem Dafoe, Tom Berrenger, Charlie Sheen. Tom Berengers a dickead though in this movie (sadface). I also enjoy the whole smoking pot out of the rifle deal.

Full Metal Jacket: "Shoot me....shoot me.." K that part dragged on awhile. But the intensity of the movie makes up for it. "WHAT IS YOUR MAJOR MALFUNCTION NUMBNUTS!"

Rough Riders: Last but not least. Tom Berrenger is in this one as well playing President Theodore Roosevelt. This is nearly a flawless performance. Plus it has Gary Busey in it playing a delirious Typhoid victim! :D
