Gallant Men: Complete Collection / (FULL MONO)

Description

The early 1960s saw ABC reliving the horrors and heroism of World War II on two fronts - the European campaign on the acclaimed Combat! and the battle for Italy on the Gallant Men. Both programs enjoyed the creative input of directorial genius Robert Altman who lent his signature layered humanistic approach to both shows. Altman directed the Gallant Men's pilot setting the template for what was to follow. Robert McQueeney stars as the series' unique framing device an Ernie Pyle-type war reporter embedded within Captain Benedict's (William Reynolds) platoon. As McQueeney's reporter narrates the events of the invasion we see war as it's lived by it's foot soldiers so-called pawns in the game of war whose determination to finish a fight they didn't start proves that sometimes a pawn can save a kingdom. Also starring Robert Ridgely and Richard X. Slattery this Six-Disc 26-Episode Collection features the entire campaign.
