15 Great War Movies (Nobody Ever Talks About)

2. The Bridge At Remagen

Three Kings
United Artists

Starring a who's who of sixties American cinema including the likes of Ben Gazzara, Robert Vaugh, and George Segal, The Bridge at Remagen is a consistently underrated WWII war drama which deserves a place in the pantheon alongside the likes of Bridge On the River Kwai and The Longest Day.

A fictionalised account of the Allies' final advance into Germany in the closing days of the years-long war, the film follows the fortunes of a group of soldiers tasked with capturing the eponymous bridge.

A vital supply line, the bridge comes to signify Nazi rule and it's up to a small, scrappy band to take the nation's power down in this thrilling drama.
