    Hi Guys/Girls (ah who am I kidding...Guys)

    Can anyone recommend a good war film/documentary. Preferably re: Cold War.

    I've just watched Downfall and really enjoyed it.

    Thanks

    For cold war/spy thriller stuff try:

    The Ipcress File or Funeral In Berlin.

    For spooky World War II films try ..

    Cottage To Let and also Went The Day Well? Both these two are British government sponsored films that have a great storyline which could have just about happened if....

    Also you can't beat Saving Private Ryan for a WWII film although you might prefer the "adult" version - Shaving Ryan's Privates.

    If you don't mind subtitles I would highly recommend The Lives of Others. It's set in East Berlin in the 80s.

    If you've watched Downfall, have you seen The Rise of Evil?

    Depends what your taste in films is as different films suit different folks :)
