WWII Movie List

Here is a list of a few movies that I came up with that where either related to or had a scene that took place during world war II.

1) The Lion The Witch And The Wardrobe: Four British syblings were sent to the country side because of the German bombings over London. The Children ended up finding a wardrobe, which served as a passage to a land called Narnia. The movie is about their adventures in Narnia and how they had to get back their brother who was kidnapped by the Ice Queen.

2)The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button: It is the story of a boy who gets younger while everyone else gets older. At one point he leaves his home and sets out to sea where after a few months is attacked by the Russians killing all of the members of his crew as well as his captain. 

3) Pearl Harbor: This movie takes you through Pearl Harbor with the events leading up to it as well as the actual battle, and the aftermath. In addition, you learn about the personal lives of the soldiers, not just when they were at war but before it.

4) Casablanca: Takes place in Casablanca, which was in unoccupied Africa during world war II. It was where many Americans sought refuge from the Germans. The hot spot in Casablanca was a place called Rick's Cafe, which was a night club. It is a story of history as well as the romance between Rick and Ilsa.

5) Valkyrie: This is the story about a man Colonel Claus von Stauffenburg who is apart of the German army, and comes up with a plan to kill Hitler. It is the story of Stauffenburg, his attempts to kill Hitler, how he figures out a ways to put his plan into action, and the failures of his plans.
