Notes
"Best of the year's battle movies. Harrowingly realistic." - John Douglas Eames, THE MGM STORY. Bataan peninsula 1942. Unlike many war-era films, this stirring saga tempers its heroics with the hard reality of history. The combat: fierce and unsparing. George Murphy, Thomas Mitchell, Lloyd Nolan, Robert Walker, Desi Arnaz, and more join Taylor in this salute to American and Philippine forces who, as the movie notes, "may have done more than we'll ever know to save this whole world."
