Original Title Big Red One, The: Special Edition
Year 1980
Director Samuel Fuller
Rating 7
Runtime 162
Genre
Classification R
Cast Lee Marvin Kelly Ward Stephanie Audran Mark Hamill Robert Carradine Siegfried Rauch Bobby DiCicco
Plot Cannes Classics "The real glory of war," Samuel Fuller said, "is surviving." A decorated combatant with the famed U.S. First Infantry in WWII, Fuller survived. His 1980 film version of his war experiences did not until now. Working with 70,000 feet of vault materials and Fuller's shooting script, critic/filmmaker Richard Schickel heads a reconstruction that adds over 40 minutes and transforms a truncated but admired war film into an epic masterwork. Lee Marvin, in a richly layered performance now revealed as one of his finest, stars as the sergeant of peach-fuzzed riflemen fighting from North Africa to Normandy and across Europe. The film is the squad's combat diary, war as it's fought and sweated and bled, and, maybe, survived.
