Three great American classics to watch for free on Arte.tv in March 2026

Don’t miss The Birds, Platoon and Dances with Wolves.

The Birdsby Alfred Hitchcock (1963) – Available until 03/22/2026

Beats of wings that will make you shudder… Tippi Hedren faces off against ravens, seagulls and other crows in this unforgettable anxiety film, where she plays Melanie Daniels, a somewhat snobbish young woman from the good society of San Francisco, who goes to Bodega Bay to offer two inseparables (a duo of adorable parrots) to a little girl she doesn’t know… The master of suspense strikes again with a creepier aesthetic than ever, incredibly spectacular for the time, rewarded by the Oscar for best visual effects (for Ub Iwerks).

Platoonby Oliver Stone (1986) – Available until 03/16/2026

A volunteer soldier goes to war in Vietnam and discovers the horror of the conflict there. Oliver Stone confronts America with the heartbreaking absurdity of this human tragedy by relying on a ground-level depiction of death, with four Oscars up for grabs (including Best Film and Best Director). And without a doubt Charlie Sheen’s best role.

Dances with Wolvesby Kevin Costner (1990) – Available until 03/30/2026

Oscar for Best Film and Best Director also for Kevin Costner, with his first feature film. A wild western masterpiece, set during the Civil War. His Northern lieutenant finds peace with the Sioux and the whole of American cinema is turned upside down.
