List of WWII films in chronological order

1

I saw a youtube video (linked below) that had a list of dozens of WWII films in chronological order. I thought some people on this forum might be interested in it so they easily find films depicting the events covered on the WWII channel as they are happening and could use this list for a guide. The months and years listed are when the films/mini series begin although many cover many months.

I also didn’t capitalize all the words in “A Bridge Too Far.”

But this is a list in chronological order with the date of when each movie was set instead of “war movie recommendations.” I’m not recommending this movies to anyone or saying people should watch them but rather this is a chronological guide so dates in the war can be matched with movies if people are interested. I looked through the thread of War Movie Recommendations and the films mentioned are not listed chronologically nor do most of them even have the months listed as when they are set.

I meant that the youtube video you posted is already present in the War Movie topic.

Yes it is but the youtube video doesn’t have the list typed out. If you wanted to find the video for say April 1940 you would have to go through the video, pause it and write down the movie. This way people can easily see all of them listed and the dates instead of going back to the same youtube video and pausing it each time they want to see a movie from that specific moment in the war.
