A is the Reader - well done. There is one more movie to guess then it is your turn.
Movie B was made in 1979.

I'd be useless at it. just came across this on the homepage said I'd throw out an answer.

Well you got the tricky one right so it's up to you !

Movie B -
There is an argument around whether or not Movie B was commercially successful. It did not do as well as planned but apparently made money in the long run.

If Movie B is gotten I'll give it a shot so. Have a couple in mind, not doubt they've been done to death

Correct . A is France ( i seem to have a thing about war movies set in France) Very recent, French movie done in a more hollywood style and thus a certain loss of accuracy

Yes Indeed

Morlar

ok here are 2 more

Movie A

This is not a WW2 movie - it's a movie with the beginning set in WW2 - the beginning is an integral part of the movie and the first 30 mins or so are ww2. (not a serious historical movie)



Movie B - v. easy one !

marienbad

hell is for heroes with the one and only Steve M.

The other one is nagging me

Morlar

As mentioned A is not really a war movie as such, the chaos of the war plays a big part in the earliest part of the movie. After that it's a revenge kind of film.

Here are 2 more pics for A





Hell is for heroes is correct - excellent movie and actor
