This was the film that broke John Wayne though time has shown that it was neglected by the public.THe version available today is a farce compared to the original we saw.True there some unasked for familiar Wayne and co. drinking scenes but overall a good character study is shown of the leading figures.Widmark,Harvey,Ken Curtis and the others are brilliant.Wayne is simply Wayne.His presence and face tells all.Painstakingly made war scenes,excellent photography and an adequate script gives rise to a well made film.Enjoyable viewing and full of splendid heroics.A character study of John Wayne in fact.Get to know him.See this film!
