If you've never read it, I'd suggest Johnny Got His Gun, by Dalton Trumbo. It's still the best novel about war, sacrifice, and humanity that I've read.
The Killer Angels is an excellent, excellent war novel, and even though it's about the American Civil War and not a world war, it's well worth reading. King Rat is a great novel.
Movies- Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence- I don't think that enough people have seen it. Black Hawk Down is one of the more gripping modern stories that I've seen on film. (Of course, Full Metal Jacket, Platoon, almost every episode of MASH, Bridge on the River Kwai, Midway, The Year of Living Dangerously, Schindler's List...and too many more.)
If you really want good WWI entertainment, I'd suggest Blackadder Goes Forth. Being Blackadder, it is funny as hell, but it is also very moving.
And as a Canadian female who liked Anne of Green Gables, I'd recommend reading Rilla of Ingelside in combination with The Selected Journals of L.M. Montgomery: Vol. 2, 1910-1921. The author of Anne of Green Gables was not happy and chipper, but had a real insight into the lives of the people left at home.
