THE BATTLESHIP POTEMKIN (1925) About a sailors' The history is loosely- uprising in 1905 interpreted but the film itself is a piece of history ЮОНОРСКИЙ Most-effective propaganda of all time REDS (1980) About communist American journalist John S. Reed and his reporting of the Russian Revolution About Italian class struggles coinciding with the rise of Fascism Four hours long and includes cameos by actual historical figures from the Russian Revolution, which is awesome Beautifully shot (Vittorio Storaro!) and acted Kind of an obscure Italian film, except that it stars Robert De Niro and Donald Sutherland, who didn't understand Bertolucci's instructions and almost walked off the set several times. Five hours long COME AND SEE (1985) The single most horrifying film I've ever seen, and doubly scary - it's a true story I won't dare spoil it, but suffice to say you watch it once and never again AMISTAD (1997) About a slave revolt in the 1840s and the subsequent litigation The driest film on this compass but if you're into that stuff, have at it AMADEUS (1984) DOWNFALL (2004) About the About the last ten days of Adolf Hitler and those around him NOVECENTO (1976) MICHAEL COLLINS (1996) About the life and work of Irish revolutionary Michael Collins I had almost no interest in Irish history but this film makes it somewhat interesting SCHINDLER'S LIST (1993) About Oskar Schindler and his effort to get a tax bre- I mean altruistically rescue 1,500 Jews in the Holocaust THE quintessential Holocaust film, should be required watching, a masterpiece all around musical rivalry between Mozart It truly is and Salieri Shakespearean in its tragic depth and an immersive look into little- known history LINCOLN (2012) Contrary to its overambitious title, it's pretty much just about the passage of the Emancipation Proclamation A LOT of gritty procedural scenes and 1860s worldbuilding GLORY (1986) About black soldiers in the Civil War, a great portrayal of how they were treated unequally even by the Union Starring Morgan Freeman There are no black Civil War wojaks so I had to put one in blackface I'm sorry THE PIANIST (2002) About a famous Jewish pianist and his struggles to stay alive during the Holocaust The world just keeps s------- on him, man TITANIC (1997) know, I know, start throwing tomatoes at me now Despite the s----- romance parts (I fast- forward through them), James Cameron really gets the history right and the film is on a grand historical scale that hasn't been replicated since EXTREMELY well-made and acted, my second-favorite historical movie of all time and the best look at the German side of WWII THE RIGHT STUFF (1983) About American test pilots and early astronauts in the Mercury missions Does a good job at putting faces to famous American names Three hours long but utilizes every minute 1917 (2019) A film about the experiences of director Sam Mendes's grandfather in the Battle of Arras Extremely beautifully- shot, my favorite war movie The climactic ten minutes are a visual feast and give the viewer a sense of scale unlike any other WWI film I've seen About United 93, the flight that was sho- brought down by passengers on 9/11 to prevent another attack Gripping drama, so immersive that by the end you think they might get away with landing safely before remembering what happens THE WIND RISES (2013) About the designer of the Mistubishi Zero fighter and his struggles to balance creativity and his career The only animated film on this compass, but still included because it's 1) historically-accurate and 2) not for kids LETTERS FROM IWO JIMA (2007) Looks at the Battle of Iwo Jima from the Japanese perspective Shot only with natural light, making it much more realistic. Also Iñarritu put the actors through hell. Surprisingly- sympathetic and in- depth, you don't see many perspectives from Japan in WWII And directed by CLINT EASTWOOD, if you'll believe it PATTON (1971) A biopic on one of America's most controversial generals Kind of celebrates his brash aggressiveness and delusions of grandeur Utilized hundreds of extras for the epic battle scenes Got me interested in the Apollo missions when I was a kid Kind of an "America, F--- Yeah" narrative Neil Armstrong Most biopic, very well breathtaking shot launch sequence I've ever seen Holy f---, we really did that ARAN THE GREAT ESCAPE (1964) About a mass escape of Allied prisoners from a German POW camp in 1944 Really makes THE LAST EMPEROR (1987) About Pu Yi, the last Emperor of China history campy and fun The beautifully-shot (Vittorio Storaro is the GOAT) tragic story of how an opulent empire trapped in the 17th century turned into a communist dictatorship in under 50 years DARKEST HOUR (2017) About Winston Churchill's accession to power and his handling of Dunkirk APOLLO 13 (1995) THE KING'S SPEECH (2011) LAWRENCE OF ARABIA (1963) About the ill-fated Apollo 13 mission and the NASA ingenuity that brought them home About King George's struggles with a speech impediment at the beginning of WWII Biopic about one of the most interesting and based figures of the 20th century H-------- Mark Zuckerberg is evil (0 UNITED 93 (2006) FIRST MAN (2019) PATRIOTS DAY (2016) THE QUEEN (2006) About the Boston Marathon Bombing and its aftermath About Lizzie's reaction to the death of Diana Could have been a cheap cop-out but it's extremely well done and comes off like a noir mystery film, but it's all real Has been overshadowed by Dunkirk (2017) but it's the better film Great score too I had no idea about this but it's important to learn about how even kings are vulnerable Especially touching because we all remember it Really shows how far THE REVENANT (2015) THE SOCIAL NETWORK (2010) THE AVIATOR (2004) Leonardo DiCaprio claws his way to an Oscar win as he portrays Hugh Glass, a real-life fur trader who was mauled by a bear and lived Biopic about Howard Hughes, the autistic multimillionaire aviator About the Beautifully-shot founding of Facebook and the (David Fincher) betrayals and and scored litigation (Trent Reznor) surrounding it KINGDOM OF HEAVEN (2005) A three-hour epic about the Crusades with a bunch of big name stars political power travels in the United States, sobering And it portrays the Muslims sympathetically Puts the opulence of the Roaring 20s on full display Really grand film but gets boring in the third act Very immersive and epic in scale THE KING (2019) A recent Netflix film about the Battle of Agincourt and the events surrounding it Put it on for Timothee Chalamet, left with a new appreciation for medieval history Well-shot and acted, great battle scenes CHAPPAQUIDDICK (2017) About that time Ted Kennedy killed a girl and it got covered up Battle of Mogadishu Three hours long and worth every second "Aww poor me I'm too rich" Seriously though it's cool to see some of the Queen's psychology My favorite historical movie BLACK HAWK DOWN (2001) About the high-octane Testosterone- fueled guys' filn THE ASSASSINATION OF JESSE JAMES BY THE COWARD ROBERT FORD (2007) Takes a subject I wasn't at all interested in the assassination of Jesse James - and made it the most interesting thing in the world Extremely well-shot, acted, and scored The last six minutes are a masterpiece
