The Best Years of Hollywood Film

Twelve O’Clock High. This classic war movie, starring Gregory Peck as General Frank Savage (emphasis on savage), depicts a very stern general who, upon arriving, is not the most welcomed. He views his soldiers as mere statues on a giant chess board, and if one goes down it’s all worth it to win the war. This is not very encouraging to his men, who are risking their lives in fighter planes -very dangerous considering they are attempting to fly during the day and attack a German military base. It is a great story on moral, but I wouldn’t suggest it if you aren’t really in to war movies. To be honest, I nearly fell asleep on it. Luckily it is an easy storyline to follow!
