I don't recall if we've had this topic before, but...

What particular battle would you like to be given the "Saving Private Ryan/Black Hawk Down" treatment?

In other words, a brutally accurate and respectful portrayal, using the best technical and dramatic abilities that Hollywood has to offer.

My choice would be the First Naval Battle of Guadalcanal, November 13 1942.
