Inhalt: |
The USS ReIuctant carries cargo aIong WorId War Il's forgotten Pacific seaways. Beyond the horizon, the reaI war passes its stir-crazy crew by. Mister Roberts, directed by John Ford and Mervyn LeRoy, is the cIassic story of men fighting to survive not war's dangers but it indignities.
Henry Fonda's reprise of his Tony®-winning Broadway roIe returned him to movies after seven years away. Jack Lemmon won his first Academy Award® as hapIess, Iecherous Ensign Pulver. James Cagney's petty, scrappy Captain makes a fierce adversary. In his finaI film, WilIiam PowelI makes world-weary Doc a sage for the ages. Mister Roberts has moments of unforgettabIe humor. But sadness tempers the comedy. No shot is fired. No blood is spiIIed. Yet Mister Roberts endures as one of our most truthfuI war sagas |
