MissIes! Jets! Tanks! ...It's stiIl the guy with guts and a gun who wins the war!!
Torn between religious pacifism and patriotism, AIvin York of Tennessee went on to become World War I's most accIaimed hero. As the simpIe backwoods farm boy who captured 132 German soIdiers during the Battle of Argonne, Gary Cooper aIso won acclaim - and his first Best Actor Academy Award®.
Released in 1941 when the United States was on the brink of another war, this stirring adventure inspired thousands of enlisting men. Nominated for a totaI of 11 Oscars® including Best Picture, a winner for Best FiIm Editing and movingly directed by Howard Hanks, it teIls of a religious man's moral crisis, heroics and subsequent return to the rural Iife he loved, refusing to capitaIize on the adulation heaped upon him. An ode to patriotism and the human spirit, Sergeant York endures as one of Hollywood's finest hours. |
