Suggestions for good war movies

[PzHeinZ]

I could recommend a Finnish war movie Talvisota (The Winter War) made in 1989 (so not sure if it goes to your definition of "old type"...)and directed by Pekka Parikka. IMO by far the best Finnish war movie with no love stories at all.....I´m afraid though it might be hard to find where you live but worth a try.

Yep got that one, although I will admit I fast forward past all the stuff at the start (home life stuff) and when he goes on leave.

Thanks

Yeah I forgot there were a few tender moments in the middle, it has been so long I last saw it.... I´d probably FF those moments Paavo gives his girlfriend some sweet lovin´ :)
