The Double Academy Award Winner Saluting The "Battered Bastards Of Bastogne!"
December 1944. A civilian victim of the Battle of Bastogne scrounges through garbage to find a scrap of food. "l don't even see those things," a war-numbed Gl says. "I want to remember them!" his buddy snaps.
Bastogne veteran Robert Pirosh remembers with his Oscar winning screenplay for BattIeground, a gripping taIe of 101st Airborne troops resisting HitIer's fierce, final counteroffensive. Directed by WiIliam A. WeIIman the superb cast incIudes James Whitmore as a bantam rooster of a sarge and Van Johnson as a wisecracking PFC Rugged and unsparing, BattIeground-nominated for six Academy Awards incIuding Best Picture-makes sure we aIl remember.
