Saw this war film upon release in 1962, recently rewatched it on AMC;
seemed well executed production, but got feeling that film was something of a glaring showcase for its '42 stars'. I would have enjoyed film more if there
were near- zero # of stars!(Not that I think that 'stars' are invariably distracting, but overemphasis can be.)
How bout you?
