Eight Iron Men

Eight Iron Men
Stanley Kramer's WWII character study has Lee Marvin as the Sergeant of a small squad laid over during fighting in Italy. During the otherwise boring time between battles, tensions arise as they are ordered not to rescue a squadmate pinned down by the enemy, for fear of risking more lives. Based on the stage play "A Sound of Hunting" by Harry Brown.

It would have been a much better movie if they took out the dream scenes; they should have trusted the story.
