Essential Series

Hello, welcome to my new ongoing ESSENTIAL series. As I watch and write about films if I think that they are films that everyone should watch I will tag them there. These are films that may or may not be on my top 25. I decided that I wanted to do this while watching Die Brücke last night. The film is tremendous and I think it offers a alternate view of patriotism it pairs well with Saving Private Ryan. As if 9-26-2017 I think I will be grouping the films by genre but that may change. It will be a while before the list is really filled out.
