<br /> <br />The worst thing about this movie for me was the dreadful song that accompanies the screen credits at movie's beginning. Everything moved up a notch from there. <br /> <br />Great movie this is not, great history either. But some things do stand out in this WWII drama: the sniper episode near movie's end as other reviewers mention, the starkness of some scenes is very reminicent of BIG RED ONE and even BATTLE OF THE BULGE, but one that leaves good impressions is the actual battle footage, mostly Navy, and the amphibious landings using fairly realistic landing craft. Though I served in the military, never used a landing craft to take a beach, but that scene was for me fairly captivating. <br /> <br />For the first time viewer this is a somewhat spellbinding, suspenseful movie. And for most people whether reviewers give this movie a good or bad rating, it will be too late, for most will have already purchased and viewed the movie. And generally if this isn't true, most people won't believe the reviews, wanting to experience the movie for themselves. <br /> <br />Semper Fi.

Nobody Drowns in Mineral Lake

Edward Dmytryk directed this gritty drama about one of the biggest Allied blunders of World War II.

Robert Mitchum stars as a war correspondent who lands with the American troops at Anzio.

Shortly thereafter, along with soldiers Peter Falk and Reni Santoni, he discovers that the Germans were unprepared for this invasion, and that the road to Rome is completely clear.

Unfortunately, the general, well played by Arthur Kennedy, doesn't believe him and decides to fortify his beachhead, which gives the Germans time to mount an effective defense that is disastrous to the Allies.

Earl Holliman, Mark Damon and Robert Ryan co-star in this exciting film, which features some well-staged action sequences, particularly one in which Mitchum and a squad of soldiers escape across a mine field.
