The Patriot is probably my favorite. That era of History and the warfare that occurred then has always fascinated me. Men lined up and literally faced each other on the battle field. Those who were literate were eligible to become officers, and the educated members of the gentry watched the action from a hilltop post with little to no fear of dying. Talk about real time strategy.

hell yeah, excellent movie I forgot about because of the era. Dances with Wolves was also a great movie, just a little too romantic for the list though.Originally posted by DOHCTR View PostThe Patriot is probably my favorite.

I dont consider dww a war movie, but i guess you can make an argument for it. Another movie from the same time period, Glory, is one of my all time favorites.Originally posted by 5.0_CJ View Posthell yeah, excellent movie I forgot about because of the era.
