B) Vietnam War
C) Suez War
D) Korean War
I remember from art history that Picasso's "Guernica" was in response to the spanish civil war and I believe he was done most of his prominent stuff by 1940, so A is out. I know B) lasted a long time, but started closer to 1960.

Between C and D, I'm leaning toward D, strictly on gut.

I'll go with Korea, final answer.

bodyguard - I will always love you...
Robinhood - anything I do, I do it for you...
Ghost - Unchained melody
Four weddings and a funeral - Love is all around.

answer is D...funnily enough, this song was actually bastardized as "christmas is all around" at the beginning of Love Actually, another Hugh Grant gem...

yeah...the wife drags me to a lot of flick.
