I 1914 må den engelske bondedreng Albert skille sig af med sin elskede hest, Joey, som han sælger til kavaleriet. Det stolte dyr skifter ejer mange gange under første verdenskrig, og såvel britiske officerer, tyske soldater og en fransk landmand knytter bånd til Joey. Samtidig melder Albert sig ind i hæren og gør et bravt, om end næsten umuligt forsøg på at finde sin hest igen. Steven Spielberg står bag dette storslåede krigsdrama, der er en filmatisering af Michael Morpurgos populære børnebog, der senere blev en kæmpe succes som teaterstykke på Broadway. En række kendte navne dukker op i løbet af filmen, blandt andet danske Nicolas Bro dukker op i en central rolle (hans historier fraoptagelserne er fantastiske)!

A group of German infantrymen of the First World War live out their lives in the trenches of France. They find brief entertainment and relief in a village behind the lines, but primarily terror fills their lives as the attacks on and from the French army ebb and flow. One of the men, Karl, goes home on leave only to discover the degradation forced on his family by wartime poverty. He returns to the lines in time to face an enormous attack by French tanks.

For six hundred years Sweden had controlled most of Finland until the war with Russia that ended in 1809, when Finland became a Grand Duchy of the Russian Czar. This period drama is set during that early 19th-century war and focuses on one of its heroes, Sven Tuuva. Sven is a decent yet not too brilliant soldier, and his exploits are partly balanced here by the charms of a compatriot.

The Stooges are discharged from the army after WW I, and promptly administer some revenge to their mean sergeant.

A teenage soldier in World War I—a simple village boy with a naive youthful dream of fame and medals—throws himself into the unknown and goes blind in the first battle, thus taking on a new job: intercepting enemy planes by listening to the air through huge metal funnels.
