This American war film was directed by Robert Aldrich. The cast includes Jack Palance, Eddie Albert, Lee Marvin, William Smithers, Robert Strauss, Richard Jaeckel, Buddy Ebsen and Peter van Eyck. The film is set towards the end of World War II, and focuses on the tension between Captain Erskine Cooney (Eddie Albert) and Lieutenant Joe Costa (Jack Palance), who set up an artillery observation post. Tensions run high, and not every gun is pointed at the enemy ! Palance gives one of the greatest performances of his career.
