Usually I'm the one amongst friends makng these sort of suggestions but this time it's a little different.

It seems to be getting harder to catch up with mates lately, getting snowed under with work, family and other commitments, There just doesn't seem to be much time left in the day for hanging out.

So we decided to to and stick with the idea of a monthly or bi-monthly movie night - or movie marathon if you will, And decided to try and stick with a theme for each one.

Now the Theme for the first night was agreed upon as "War Movies" - While chatting we discovered that there are a lot that either none of us have seen or only some of us. So I'm hoping to put together a shortlist of candidates. It seems a broad enough category...

The highest priority will be films we've never seen that are highly recommended. Not simply movies that we haven't seen.

Being a movie themed site I figured there are some among you who'd introduce us to some real gems of films.

Any suggestions?
