| ♥♥♥♥♥ | Three-and-a-half stars for this very fine John Wayne WWII pic, 50th anniversary at that. |
| John Wayne plays Wedge Donovan (a
character name he would use 19 yrs., later in 1963's Donovan's Reef), a construction Engineering magnate who ends up selling the US Navy on arming civilian personnel in hot LZs! He does get killed in here (like in 'The Cow- boys' - **.5)but his movie was way bet- ter! Enough referrences to'japs', 'mon- kies', et, al and other racial epithe- ts to turn off the 'politically stupid' types. Well, that was the terms used at the times. [to cross referrence, see J. Garner's fine 'Grand Prix' movie to see how attitudes changed by 1966!] |
