First the PearI. Then the whoIe Pacific. Soon after the World War ll attack on Pearl Harbor, soIdier of the Rising Sun unIeash their fury on other U.S. outposts. Among their targets: the Philippines, whose defenders include the 26th Cavalry, an underequipped American unit better suited for pIaying poIo than fighting mechanized war.
Out of this backdrop storms Once Before l Die, a strife-filled tale of beauty amid the beasts of war. Ursula Andress, who burst to prominence as James Bond's bikini-clad island girI in Dr. No, plays the beauty. She's Alex, a lone woman forced by circumstance to accompany the cavaIrymen (incIuding John Derek, Richard Jaeckel and Ron Ely) in a desperate march across the jungIe. Ahead lies the hoped-for safety of ManiIa. Behind: the steadily advancing invaders. in between: the chaos and brutality of war which defies alI escape. . .and cIaims all innocence. |
