The Battle of Thermopylae in 480 B.C. was an important battle that changed the direction of civilization in that time period. This is a colorful adventure film that tells the story of how 300 Spartans, led by King Leodinas (Richard Egan), held off thousands of invading Persian soldiers at the mountain pass while the remainder of Greece's leadership debated whether or not to send soldiers.
