Das Boot

 

[still-one]

Many good ones have already been noted. I would agree with several others that "Das Boot" may be the best.

Two other that I do not believe have been mentioned are "Eye of the Needle" and "Enemy At The Gates"

 

[Whatmore]

If we are including musicals what about "Bedknobs and Broomsticks"

Otherwise, "Life is Beautiful "

Two of them:

Bridge on the River Kwai [The screenwriters, Carl Foreman and Michael Wilson, were on the Hollywood blacklist and could only work on the film in secret. The two did not collaborate on the script; Wilson took over after Lean was dissatisfied with Foreman's work. The official credit was given to Pierre Boulle (who did not speak English), and the resulting Oscar for Best Screenplay (Adaptation) was awarded to him. Only in 1984 did the Academy rectify the situation by retroactively awarding the Oscar to Foreman and Wilson, posthumously in both cases. Subsequent releases of the film finally gave them proper screen credit.] And of course, we know who wrote the soundtrack

Guns of Navarone
