What happens when you tell your buddies that you're going for ammo and
get distracted by a warm cup of coffee? Well, for starters, you take
too long, they run out of ammo in the meantime and you come back to
find them in the foxhole dead. But don't let hard-as-nails Sergeant
Stryker (played by John Wayne) find out about your little goof-up.
John Wayne got his only Oscar for his part in this movie. It was well
deserved and even though he plays the part of a real tough guy, you
still can't help but like the guy in the end. |
