Summary |
"The real glory of war, "is surviving." A decorated combatant with the famed U.S. First infantry in World War II, Fuller survived. His 1980 film version of his war experiences did not ... until now. Working with 70 000 feet of vault materials and Fuller's shooting script, critic/filmmaker Richard Schickel heads a reconstruction that adds over 40 minutes and transforms a truncated but admired war film into an epic masterwork. Lee marvin, in a richly loyered performance now revealed as one of his finest, stars as the sergeant of peach-fuzzed riflemen fishing from North Africa to Normandy and across Europe. This film is the squad's combat diary, war as it's fought and sweated and bled and, maybe, survived. |
