The Korean War occupies an unusual position in film history. It appeared between two major conflicts, World War II and the Vietnam War. While stories of global conflicts and jungle warfare made it to theaters, the hills and valleys of the Korean Peninsula were often ignored, known to veterans but hardly to the movie-going public.
