It's been a long time since I've seen it but seem to remember
it was pretty good. Basically stranded groups of Japanese and American soldiers waiting to be rescued from the island they are on. They decide to hold a truce until rescue comes, then........you need to see the movie.
I love that movie--and just for you Ron--my one image from the movie so far--a double-autographed photo from the movie signed by both Brad Dexter and Clint Walker:



Even though I found my image by google--this one is the exact one I own I didnt feel like going to my photo bucket acct to search for it--too lazy.
