Mild spoiler for Dune.
A: I just watched part 1 of Dune.
B: Oh, I heard it was good. It’s about a war, isn’t it?
A: (laughing) Well yes, but there must be a thousand films about a war…
B: But it is about a war.
A: It is. That’s just not the first thing that comes to mind to describe it.
B: It’s definitely the film I’m thinking of.
A: I didn’t think you’d want to watch it because it’s science fiction.
B: It’s science fiction?!
A: Yes…
B: What film am I thinking of?!

Maybe the English Patient? Or Lawrence of Arabia. Possibly Ice Cold in Alex but probs not.

So - a war film, that isn’t science fiction.
There can’t be that many of them.

I hear there was sand on the beaches at Normandy.
And in Vietnam (the helicopter attack in Apocalypse Now). And in Burma (The Bridge on the River Kwai).

Follow that camel - it’s about soldiers, the desert and Kenneth Williams saying “There’s many a good fiddle played on an old dune!”

Or maybe The Last Remake of Beau Geste…

Although Dune sounds a bit like June, so that puts any film involving D-Day in the mix for a start.
