The Story
This official War Department film directed by John Huston gives an account of the 9 month battle in the area of San Pietro, Italy during World War II. The film is blunt in its presentation of the battle, including the fact that several attempts to seize control of the location failed miserably with heavy casualties. While the overall tone of the film is positive in that it praises the men who were fighting, the War Department never used the film as it believed it would have a negative effect on morale.
