I first saw this movie in 1984. And, try as I might, I have never been able to see it again. It is not available on video (why???) and it seldom plays on television.
More is the shame. We should scream for its imminent release on DVD.
The cast itself is impressive enough: Eli Wallach, George Peppard, Elke Sommer, Peter Fonda...
Still, just try to find it on video.
The movie is of the "War is Hell" genre. It makes some unpleasant watching, long long before "Saving Pvt Ryan" came to the silver screen. And it has a few moments of humor. As a series of vignettes -- each of them memorable -- it is a true masterpiece, as each vignette is a story told and enclosed in and of itself.
The movie builds to a very memorable ending, one I haven't yet forgotten 21 years since the last time I saw it.
