I call BS svcw. My Uncle who fought from D-day to Berlin watched Band of Brothers and cried like a baby in the end. He had never told anyone including his wife the pain he was in after all those years. Two Silver Stars a Purple Heart and a chest full of unit citations. He was one of the best men I ever knew.

Though not a movie, War and Remembrance definitely will have some scenes that will rip your guts out, especially the Holocaust scenes, and I remember the final scene when the Jane Seymour character was finally reunited with her son definitely very touching.
