List of war films and TV specials set between 1914 and 1945

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

These are depictions of diverse aspects of war in film and television, including but not limited to documentaries, TV mini-series, drama serials, and propaganda film. The list starts before World War I, followed by the Roaring Twenties, and then the Great Depression, which eventually saw the outbreak of World War II in 1939, which ended in 1945. The Cold War which soon followed generated its own productions.
