What movies do you watch over and over?

Isnt that called ''The Eagle has landed?'' Where the germans landed to try and assassinate Churchill? Or is that a different film?/quote

yes ,i was thinking that was it.They tried to kidnap Churchill or something but ended up killing an impersonator.

actually "Went the day well" is a propaganda film from 1942 or so ... but its not about an assasination attempt as in "The Eagle has landed"

Went the day well (opening) on youtube

How the &^$%$ did you find that clip?? hock:

Yep, that's the one I'm on about! It's a total propaganda film, but unlike many films - especially ones filmed in Hollywood - several of the English villagers are killed, one after dispatching a 'Naughty' German. It's not the fact that people are being killed that I find interesting, it's the matter-of-fact way in which the film portrays the actions as logical outcomes of the plot.

I think mainly its the fact that many of the principle characters suffer, and in todays cinema that is slightly unusual: that plus the lack of a 'Hollywood' (ie sickeningly sweet) ending.

Talking of Hollywood, I've got another one to add:

Devil's Advocate'

Again, the lack of a 'Hollywood' ending!
