I liked "Badlands" -- extraordinary score -- but not "Day's of Heaven." I've heard good things about "Thin Red Line" from others, I will give it a try.

As for WWII, do not miss the greatest camp movie of all time -- "Battle of the Bulge" -- with the immortal Robert Shaw. One of the funniest movies ever made....except for the boring parts about the Allies.
