The Big Red One 1980  PG, 113 min.
Genre: Adventure
Director: Samuel Fuller
Cast: Lee Marvin, Mark Hamill, Robert Carradine, Bobby DiCicco, Kelly Ward, Siegfried Rauch, Stephane Audran, Maurice Marsac, Perry Lang
This top-notch adventure looks at war through the eyes of the foot soldiers who exist one day at a time in the dangerous war zone. Director Samuel Fuller, a WWII veteran, was disappointed when his film was cut to 113 minutes. In 2003, film historian Richard Schickel added footage to expand the film by 45 minutes to better reflect Fuller's desired product. This version is the one to get.
