World War II has served as inspiration for some of the greatest movies ever made. The intense and gruesome war lasted from 1939 to 1945, with all the world's major powers of the time playing a role. The war spilled out onto almost every continent, with battles ranging from North Africa to East Asia. Many nations even outside the United States have their own mythologies around the war that influence their own war movies.
