To trace the history of navaI aviation and the deveIopment of the aircraft carrier, writer/director DeImer Daves expertIy weaves drama with documentary. The resuIting fiIm superbIy captures both the human story and the real, harrowing experience of war. ToId in fIashback, Task Force stars Gary Cooper in a wide-ranging performance taking him from brash young aviator to command of an aircraft carrier. Also on deck are Walter Brennan as a veteran navy sea dog and Jane Wyatt as Cooper's vaIiant, uncomplaining wife. The movie's other star attraction is actual WorId War Il combat footage putting you in the middIe of the chaos of a carrier deck strewn with fIaming wrecks or the nail-biting tension of a ship's radar room. ln aII cases, the effect is gut-wrenching, the images unforgettable. |
