I started my Sunday morning with a different "drama." It was a family divided.... re-uniting.... blah blah blah, left at 14 minutes in.... found this. THIS is a drama!! Good movie, thanks for the upload. Can't believe I had not seen this before. However, it dealt with an uncomfortable aspect of wars.... and that does not always make popular cinema. I thought it was quite good.
The opening scene is "The Isthmus, 'Cat Harbor' Catalina Island". The ship they're on is, "The Lane Victory" that is still in San Pedro next to Vincent Thomas Bridge.
Kirk Douglas sempre espetacular, sempre em um papel relevante. Belíssimo filme e excelentes atuações. Em épocas conturbadas como a que nos encontramos, esse filme ajuda a nos fazer pensar se o caminho que seguimos é o correto.
Have a look at the published UCMJ section on accepted orders to disobey an order. It required that 3 people of the disobedient military memmbers class ( Enlisted, Officer, or contractor) testify that the timeing and wording of the order ment the order as given was illegal. Not many people would have been willing to risk upsetting a person of hire rank to save an enamy
That's right, that is one of the first things they told us after induction in 1969. The US soldier is bound to the rule that prisoners must be fed and cared for as their own. This is a result of the Nuremberg trials where German's claimed they were only following orders. It could have been a much better movie if it were a bit more real. Underlings are not personal slaves to those of a higher rank.
Paratroopers of the 101st and 82nd were basically ordered to not take prisoners during the Normandy invasion and there are reports that some carried out those orders....reckon the exigencies of combat sometimes dictate some harsh decisions that have to be made although in this case the situation is entirely different and it was an unlawful order.
@jblue705 I just heard about that incident recently. Don't wanna believe it, but there's so much coming out about Hollywood now, just don't know what to believe anymore.
@GeraldMiller- mp8fc • Well, that's war. My father fought Nazi's in World War 2. And a couple of brother's.Hey, they used to joke with themselves. A different generation.. Even had a grandfather who served in WW1.. Well, we know the score. Damn, that Korean conflict, was a war.. damn straight. Just like Vietnam.. Hey, if you go into battle, with someone shooting at you, and you return fire? That's war, brother. . I go back even past that. I'm from MA. Ohh, baby- you ought to see our cemetery. Patton himself, lived in my town- Hamilton MA. Right down the street. Look it up. It's an age old truth.
In the final days of the Korean War, a neutral cargo ship containing American soldiers captures a wounded enemy pilot. When command headquarters orders that the prisoner be executed, gung-ho Sgt. P.J. Briscoe (Kirk Douglas), not wanting to tarnish his record as a good soldier, is ready to carry out the task. But Briscoe's underlings, Pvts. Dennison (Robert Walker) and Hackett (Nick Adams), clash with their superior on the morally correct course to take. Initial release: January 16, 1963
Lol. There’s always at least one of these comments, crying out for “the good old days.” It’s 2024, Sunrise Boy … times change and if you look for the, you’ll find some decent films being made. Perhaps not in America, but elsewhere.
Liking a movie is very subjective, so nobody is wrong that did not care for this film or any other. That being said, I am always surprised at the number of negative comments about inaccuracies in any kind of movies. Oh... that was an American plane.... oh ... it was filmed off California not Korea.... blah blah whatever. Fact is, they were telling a story and a good one, not making a documentary. So... don't like if that is what you want to do, but you are missing out on a good overall movie by being a petty nitpicker.
One thing I have noticed is that these channels posting old movies can't read Roman numerals. The credits clearly show this as 1962, yet title says 1963. Not singling this guy out, many others do the same.
A common misconception is that the date in the credits refers to the release date. It doesn't. The date in the credits refers to the date of copyright which could be months, or even years, before the date of release.
The only other movies I've seen Nick Adams acted in were three Japanese Science Fiction movies in 1965 "Frankenstein Conquers The World", "Invasion of the Astro Monster" and in 1966 "War of the Gargantuas".
Other than being in this movie together, both being Jewish actors, whatelse did Nehemiah Persoff and Kirk Douglas have in common??? Both lived to be 103 years old.

Really? How much time have you spent in the ROK. As a Marine Officer in Pohang, Pusan, Taegu, up and down the NAK TONG river to Pyongtaek, OSAN, K55, SEOUL, Inchon, and up to the DMZ a total of 6 years. I beg to differ.
@spartacusgladiator the movie was filmed in California. That is a fact and documented. So what ever you want to be an expert about has no bearing. On reality
@@ChristopherWHerbert Your feelings not facts> " looks and feels wrong." You have never been there. I have and it looks like Korea. The film makers aren't going to take a crew and actors to Kimchee land for a limited budget movie. At this time of the making of this movie, it would not have been possible to do so.

"The My Lai massacre (/miː laɪ/ mee ly; Vietnamese: Thảm sát Mỹ Lai [tʰâːm ʂǎːt mǐˀ lāːj] ⓘ) was a war crime committed by the United States Army on 16 March 1968, involving the mass murder of unarmed civilians in Sơn Mỹ village, Quảng Ngãi province, South Vietnam, during the Vietnam War.[1] At least 347 and up to 504 civilians, almost all women, children, and elderly men, were murdered by U.S. soldiers from C Company, 1st Battalion, 20th Infantry Regiment, 11th Brigade and B Company, 4th Battalion, 3rd Infantry Regiment, 11th Brigade of the 23rd (Americal) Division (organized as part of Task Force Barker). Some of the women were gang-raped and their bodies mutilated, and some soldiers mutilated and raped children as young as 12.[2][3] The incident was the largest massacre of civilians by U.S. forces in the 20th century.[4] "
An excellent film examining a moral dilemma. It's too bad this film isn't better known. Thank you for making it available.

UCMJ does not require one to follow an illegal order. killing a prisoner is murder.

But in ww2 they got away with murdering thousands of German and Japanese POWs

I wouldn't take prisoners.
A fine performance by Nick Adams before his career stalled around 1964.

Movies use to be made for adults, today, for 15 year old boys with a low IQ and violent propensity. Mostly with a dark undertone of evil intentions.

You have a great memory. I believe he was drunk in that episode.
He was also in "War Wagon" in 1967, again with Kirk Douglas, and John Wayne as their demolitions expert.
Not Robert Walker Jr. That's his dad, Robert Walker Sr. Two different people, father & son. Jr was in Star Trek "Charlie X."
