A Classic

Rating: 10/10 (24 July 1999)

George C. Scott should have accepted his Oscar for his portrayal of George S. Patton. His performance in this film was incredible. Every time I see this movie, I cannot believe the same person did the TV show "Mr. President". However, it was more than Scott. Karl Malden and others helped make this film truly great. It showed Patton as the great leader that he was, but also showed that he had human flaws just like everyone else. I have yet to find a World War II or biographical movie that measures up.
