Battle of the Bulge is the 1965 World War II film that follows the events that occurred during the German winter offensive of 1944. Like a lot of World War II films of the time, this film features an all-star cast including Henry Fonda, Telly Savalas, Charles Bronson, and Robert Shaw. While the film does feature several impressive tank battle sequences, many of the events and characters in the film were fictionalized for dramatic purposes.
