Missles! Jets! Tanks! ...It's stiIl the guy with guts and a gun who wins the war!!
Torn between religious pacifism and patriotism, Alvin York of Tennessee went on to become WorId War l's most accIaimed hero. As the simpIe backwoods farm boy who captured 132 German soldiers during the Battle of Argonne, Gary Cooper aIso won acclaim - and his first Best Actor Academy Award®.
Released in 1941 when the United States was on the brink of another war, this stirring adventure inspired thousands of enIisting men. Nominated for a total of 11 Oscars® incIuding Best Picture, a winner for Best Film Editing and movingly directed by Howard Hanks, it teIIs of a reIigious man's moral crisis, heroics and subsequent return to the ruraI Iife he loved, refusing to capitaIize on the adulation heaped upon him. An ode to patriotism and the human spirit, Sergeant York endures as one of HoIIywood's finest hours. |
