"Die Manner der Emden"-also many Young Indiana Jones episodes, "the Russian film,"Admiral"about Kolchak,english subtitled.Also the polish film1920,also subtitled.All quiet on the western front. And I agree The "Blue Max"is awesome wspecially the soundtrack.

Western Front:

I really enjoyed the 2004 French film-A Very Long Engagement. Well worth a look!

Just to add they made "Birdsong" into a two part series for television about a year ago. Not as good as it could have been but still good.

Personally I thought Warhorse was excellent.

Just remembered "Parade's End" which starred Benedict Comberbach.

It could have done with being longer as it as adapted by Tom Stoppard from four books by Ford Maddox Ford but it was still good. It was screened on TV around August 2012.

For light relief there is always Black Adder of course

Black Adder: "The guns have stopped! We've survived the Great War of 1914 to 1917!"

Thanks for all of the reccos. I got a chance to see Beneath Hill 60 recently, and it's definitely being added to the list of pictures for the film festival entitled "Australians In the Great War".
