    Looks like a young Treat Williams so I will take a chance and say The eagle has landed for B

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

    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.

    That's odd - when you quote the post both links are there - maybe hotlinking is disabled from those sites?

    Movie A

    http://www.altfg.com/Stars/i/inglourious-basterds-1.jpg

    Movie B

    http://www.moviepicturedb.com/pictures/09_01/1998/120815/l_120815_f6c789a6.jpg

    anyway . . .

    Movie A = Inglorious bastards
    Movie B =Saving Private Ryan (Upham doing the ammo run !)

    If anyone else wants a go now fire away - if not I will post a couple later

    It makes it easier if you put the picture url in [ img ] tags - there is a post a few pages back explaining how.

    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

    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)

    attachment.php?attachmentid=144074&d=1295397076

    Movie B - v. easy one !

    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

    144077.jpg

    144078.jpg

    Hell is for heroes is correct - excellent movie and actor :)
