Screen greats Robert Mitchum, Peter Falk and Arthur Kennedy star in the riveting war drama Anzio, a vivid portrait of one of the bloodiest World War II battles ever fought. After landing with the Allied troops at Anzio, Italy in 1944, war correspondent, Dick Ennis, and buddy Corporal Rabinoff tell Anzio Commander General Lesley that the road to Rome is wide open. But instead of heading to Rome, Lesley attempts to build a coastal stronghold. Only to discover that the Germans have outflanked them by enclosing the Anzio beachhead. |
