Because there are so many amazing movies related to the topics I cover in my secondary U.S. and World History classes I offer extra credit to students who watch them. Since I am currently teaching World War II, here are the student-friendly films I suggest to my students:
Monuments Men Wind Talkers Red Tails Twelve O'Clock High Tuskegee Airmen South Pacific Patton Midway Memphis Bell Fat Man and Little Boy Judgement at Nuremberg The Longest Day A Midnight Clear Swing Kids Saving Private Ryan Fat Man and Little Boy Pearl Harbor | Ballad of a Soldier Hiroshima Maiden Judgement at Nuremberg The Longest Day The Sound of Music The White Rose The Diary of Anne Frank Europa! Europa! Schindler's List Midway Tora! Tora! Tora! Casablanca The Pianist Seven Years in Tibet Truman Swing Kids Pearl Harbor Saving Private Ryan |
