Re: Best post WWII Military Films
Pretty Village, Pretty Flame (1996) - about the War in Bosnia. Follows a squad of Serb soldiers who torch a Muslim village but are then trapped in a tunnel with little hope of rescue. This gives us the opportunity to learn their life stories as they slowly go crazy from thirst and isolation.
Dark and full of characteristic Balkan black humour, I consider it one of the best movies from ex-Yugoslavia in general. The English subtitles on the version I watched are pretty good, too.
