My wife and I watched a WW2 movie today that is, sort of, a true story and an example of excellent movie making. The Train (1964). It's about the rescuing of important paintings from Paris after D-Day and the effort to keep them out of the hands of the Nazis.
It was shot entirely on location with real trains (one German armored locomotive was faked with plywood) and maintenance techniques. The actors even did their own stunts (for the most part). They even actually blew up a railyard that the village wanted to rebuild.
I've seen it various places over the years but we watched it on YouTubeTV today.
