13. Letters from Iwo Jima (2006)
Trending
Clint Eastwood's Letters from Iwo Jima has been another film offering a unique perspective on World War II; this one detailing the Battle of Iwo Jima through the eyes of Japanese soldiers. Ken Watanabe imbues General Kuribayashi with humanity sorely lacking in most war stories. Shot almost entirely in Japanese, it is a fine accompaniment to Flags of Our Fathers. The film remains a powerful film in terms of empathy and its focus on the futility of war, as historians praise its historical accuracy. It remains a profound reminder of the shared suffering on both sides of the battlefield.
