Warning: Spoilers
This is a stellar study of a man's breaking under pressure in a POW camp as seen through the consequences after he returns home.Maj. Harry Cargill is being investigated for a court marshall for treason in the Korean war.The trouble with easy and abundant special effects is that directors think that plots and dialogue can be dispensed with in favor of piling one special effect on another.Movie viewer have become so used to this that they think that a movie that appea;ls to the MIND that asks them to THINK is dull,as one of the reviewers has said.Looking at this really makes you miss the time when movies were something more than long CARTOONS.This is a superb example of the movie that appeals to your intelligence,rather than just exploding in your face!
