i just saw this movie for the first time ever the other day. i watched it because my uncle loves it and keeps telling me to watch it. i found out it is out of print and to me (now that i've seen it) that is a crime. i fell in love with the film and wonder why that can't make 'em like that anymore. and as for george gobel this was the first i've seen of him but i can tell you he was great in this film. now i see why my uncle goes on and on about him. if this film ever gets re-issued i'll be first in line to buy it. four stars for this film. and a big four stars for lonesome george.

written in perfect form and directed the same. as for the acting well don murray turns in the best performance of his career. eva marie saint and lloyd nolan are in top form and henry silva is excellent as mother. anthony franciosa steals the show with possibly the best performance in a motion picture. this film is so good it should be made available on video and never be taken out of print. it is one of those as perfect as film can be movies. if you get the chance to see it don't pass it by for anything.

away from hollywood and still in top form on this 30 min. doc/short is holden. if you don't like shorts or war films you won't enjoy this one however if you are a war film fan or a bill holden fan you'll love it. the war scenes are excellent and the other scenes have that touch of holden all over them.
