Patton, generale d'acciaio
Diretto da Franklin J. SchaffnerDuramente sconfitte a Kasserine, in Tunisia, nel loro primo scontro con l'"Africa Korps" di Rommel, le forze americane si rifanno allorché il comando della VII Armata viene assunto dal generale George S. Patton. Militare di carriera e più ancora di vocazione, fanatico, arrogante e volgare, ma anche abile e valoroso comandante, Patton, dopo aver conquistato la Sicilia, rivaleggiando con Montgomery, subisce un'eclissi temporanea per aver schiaffeggiato come vigliacco un soldato colto da una crisi nervosa. Sbarcati gli alleati in Normandia, viene affidato a Patton il comando della III Armata, con la quale, vinta la cruenta battaglia di Bastogne, e conquistate le Ardenne, si spinge fin nel centro della Germania.

Patton, generale d'acciaio Ratings e Recensioni
- flavo437 dicembre 2025Patton (1970) stands as one of the greatest biographical films ever made, capturing the complexity of General George S. Patton with both grandeur and nuance. George C. Scott delivers a remarkable performance, embodying the general’s brilliance, ferocity, and contradictions with unmatched intensity. His portrayal balances Patton’s strengths—strategic genius, courage, and relentless drive—with his flaws, including arrogance and volatility, making the character both inspiring and deeply human. The film’s sweeping cinematography and powerful score underscore the scale of World War II, while its sharp script explores the psychology of leadership and the cost of ambition. Rather than glorifying Patton uncritically, the movie presents him as a man of immense talent and troubling flaws, a portrait rendered with grace and dignity. Patton remains a cinematic triumph, blending history, character study, and spectacle into a compelling exploration of one of America’s most controversial military figures.
