Favourite war movie ?

[HPL2008]

Quick question. Does anybody know the name of the film that centred around a young German soldier and his experiences on the Eastern front, and his death at the hands of some partisans whom he'd helped to escape. I believe that the American actor that played him, later became an American ambassador to Mexico.

I know the movie, and it is a great one, but for the life of me, I can't recall the name. Good choice! Jim G.

It's "A Time To Love And A Time To Die"; see:

A Time to Love and a Time to Die (1958) - IMDb

Yes, indeed; a very good, moving film.

I know some folks would disagree but I thought The Dirty Dozen was a waste.We won the war but not like that.
