Sands of Iwo Jima (1949)


IMDb plot summary: A dramatization of the World War II Battle of Iwo Jima.
Directed by Allan Dwan. Starring John Wayne, John Agar, Adele Mara, and Forrest Tucker.

I appreciated how much time it spent trying to get to know the characters. Still didn't do much for me personally, but it came closer than a lot of combat movies.

2 stars.

How it entered my Flickchart:
Sands of Iwo Jima < George of the Jungle
Sands of Iwo Jima > Sharknado
Sands of Iwo Jima < The Perfect Score

Final spot: #1827 out of 2681.
