Zhilikam t'°Korsaun Ask'ersu Rai'uhn°

Other than a handful of historical documentaries, the Vulcans do not produce anything like Terran war drama movies. The Vulcans have worked hard to leave their violent past behind them, so, for cultural reasons, they do not have anything to do with this genre. Although many cultures on Earth did not glorify war, the war drama was a very popular genre for most of the 20th and the first half of the 21st Centuries C.E. A number of the classic movies were filmed during World War II or the Korean War for morale purposes. The award-winning Saving Private Ryan has been enjoyed for centuries since it was first filmed. It was noted for its realism of the D-Day landings at Omaha Beach during World War II. Many consider it the best movie of its genre.
