Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
Just before the Battle of El Alamein, in 1943, the Eighth Army's Long Range Desert Group launches an attack on one of Rommel's key petrol dumps. Object: knock out the Afrika Korps. Standard heroics, partially redeemed by trenchant visuals, courtesy of former cameraman Green, and a typically sweaty performance by Attenborough.Author: TJ
