These Are The Top 12 Military Movies That Have Won An Oscar



Military.com: The Top 12 Military Movies in Oscar History

For over 80 years, military films have made an impact at the Academy Awards. With American Sniper scoring six nominations at this year’s Oscars, including Best Picture, Best Adapted Screenplay and Best Actor, we thought it would be a good time to do our rundown of the top dozen military movies in Oscar history (in our humble opinion – feel free to mention some of your favorites in the comments section below this article)… And if you want more details on American Sniper, check out the full Military​.com review as well as a feature on Chris Kyle and this video footage.

Note: This list only features films that have won an Oscar. There are certainly many classic Oscar-less films out there that would make our list of best military movies ever (Das Boot, for one).

WNU Editor: The Bridge on the River Kwai (1957), The Deer Hunter (1978), and Lawrence of Arabia (1962) are my favorites.
