High Noon at the bridge

Rating: Null/10 (3 August 1998)

The Carl Foreman influence is evident in the film despite the fact that his name was, for a long time, not even in the credits. Like Foreman's HIGH NOON, we have a train due to arrive at a crucial moment bringing with it some sort of doom and death.
Also like HIGH NOON, this film makes us look at what makes people tick. The madness of the two colonels is an interesting study in what war does to people. This is one of the great war -- or anti-war -- films.
