I always loved Robert Aldrich's extremely taut war drama "Attack" with Jack Palance, Eddie Albert, Lee Marvin, and Buddy Ebsen, among other great acting peformances.

You can't get any more manic than Jack Palance or cowardly and simpering than Eddie Albert in this one. I don't honestly know how Palance managed to do it for the whole films length! Truly amazing film performance.

Robert Aldrich is the ultimate Man Film Director...with themes pitting everyone against each other. "Flight of the Phoenix", "The Longest Yard", "Emperor of the North Pole"...a "lost" classic as far as I'm concerned, "The Big Knife", "Kiss Me Deadly" and others.

A very macho man film director, that was also ahead of his time with the films of female subjects in "The Killing of Sister George", "Hush Hush Sweet Charlotte" and "What Ever Happened To Baby Jane ?".
