2. Paths of Glory (1957): Kirk Douglas stars as a WWI colonel in Stanley Kubrick’s first box office hit.

3. M*A*S*H (1970): Robert Altman’s dark comedy about the Korean War draws parallels with Vietnam.
4. Das Boot (1981): Set inside a WWII U-boat, the German film depicted the reality of undersea warfare.
5. Platoon (1986): In Oliver Stone's highly autobiographical film, Charlie Sheen drops out, tunes in to Vietnam, isn't turned on.
