A young soldier faces his fear in the Civil War.
Sinekatalog’s take
John Huston's Civil War drama follows Audie Murphy's young soldier facing fear in battle. Short and stark, though cut by the studio, it still offers striking black-and-white images and a sharp study of cowardice and courage.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
