Three excellent war movies to check out on Netflix after watching Oppenheimer in theaters.
about war, of course, don’t always have to be about killing and fighting in trenches, on open fields, or in the air. This next Netflix film,, takes the battle elsewhere — to the corridors of power occupied by gentlemen spies. Specifically, the spymasters who cooked up a plot that successfully tricked Hitler.
Matthew Macfadyen as Charles Cholmondeley, Colin Firth as Ewen Montagu, and Johnny Flynn as Ian Fleming in Netflix’s “Operation Mincemeat.” Image source: Giles Keyte/See-Saw Films, Courtesy of Netflix: To distract German attention from a planned Allied invasion, the masterminds behind British deception operations decide to slip the Germans some bad intelligence — the idea being to convince the Germans to shift their attention away from where the invasion will take place.
As you can probably imagine, the Germans during WWII would have rightly treated as suspicious any game-changing intelligence that just magically happened to fall into their lap from a source, no matter how authentic it looked or how trusted the source was. So the Allies came up with a brilliant solution:the intelligence on their own, as opposed to having it brought to them.
Put this war movie on your list if, like me, you especially love spying, deceit, and all the other mischief that goes on during wartime far away from the front lines.This final title isn’t a Netflix original, but it falls in the same category of war movies occupied by the likes ofThe Imitation Game , Benedict Cumberbatch portrays Alan Turing, the genius who helped the crew of codebreakers at Bletchley Park crack the German war effort’s supposedly unbreakable Enigma machine.
