Objective
Burma
Errol Flynn. Paratroopers in "43"
into Burma. The C-47s take them in and supplies them throughout the
movie....
Suggestion by Tom Esterly
amazone.com
A paratroop captain (Errol Flynn) sets out with
a platoon to attack a Japanese outpost in the jungle. The Americans reach
their target, take out the enemy with almost balletic precision,
then gear up to return home. This feels like the point when a conventional
war movie would have reached its action-filled climax, but the journey
has only begun. Ahead lies one of the most arduous and agonizing adventures
any World War II film ever offered, brilliantly directed by that underrated
old master Raoul Walsh and photographed with almost tactile realism
by the great James Wong Howe.The chief rap against
Objective, Burma! (of concern mainly to British observers) is that it
suggests that only U.S. forces contested the Japanese in the jungles of Burma.
(OK, so it's not the most accurate history lesson.) But that's small beer in
view of the movie's bone-chilling portrayal of pain, sacrifice, and endurance.
The jungle atmosphere is so persuasive, you'd swear it was shot on the actual
locations (though in fact Walsh effectively reworked many of the same situations
in Distant Drums, a sort-of Western about the Seminole War, six years
later). You'll never forget the terrifying last dark night on a mountainside--or
the crocodiles.... Flynn is excellent (he had given his best performance ever in
Walsh's Gentleman Jim three years earlier), and he's backed by a solid
cast including Henry Hull (as an aging war correspondent), James Brown, William
Prince, George Tobias, and Stephen Richards (soon to change his name to Mark
Stevens). Incidentally, two of the writers, Alvah Bessie and Lester Cole, were
later blacklisted; see if you can spot any Commie propaganda. --Richard T.
