There are far fewer films about the Korean War than about WW2, even just the fighting in the Pacific. And films about Vietnam are both more plentiful, and generally better known. So finding a really good one, that takes a cool, hard, look, and strips out all the gung-ho razzmatazz and over-the-top political rationalisation, is rare and welcome. ‘M.A.S.H’(1970) is THE famous film, which went on to generate a much-loved and long-running TV spin-off. There are others, but this film is certainly one of the very best. It has top drawer credentials, being based on a 1953 novella by James A Michener, who had enlisted as a Naval Officer in WW2, despite being a Quaker. During the Korean War, he was an embedded reporter, serving on Naval carriers and writing about the Naval air war. He was also a Pulitzer Prize winner for his first novel, about WW2 in the Pacific.
Michener’s book, about the destruction of heavily defended bridges, also drew in part on the exploits of the first US helicopter pilot to win the Medal of Honor. It was viewed by many of the men who’d actually participated, as one of the most accurate portrayals of their experience, both in the air and on the ground. Mark Robson, the Canadian-born director, was originally an editor, assisting with ’Citizen Kane’(1941). He was not prolific as a director, but had several notable successes, including ‘Champion’(1949) and ‘Inn of the Sixth Happiness’(1958). His WW2 film ‘Von Ryan's Express’(1965), with Frank Sinatra, is a gem.
Robson had considerable co-operation from the US Navy, and filmed aboard 2 carriers, using their Grumman ‘Panthers’ and a Sikorsky ‘Dragonfly’, a very early rescue helicopter ~ this is especially fascinating. They also filmed on US bases in Japan. This co-operation allowed the most spectacular sequences of bombing raids, landing on carriers and other exciting flying scenes. Models were intercut with actual naval combat footage, to produce amazingly authentic and scary action. The result was an OSCAR for Special Effects and a nomination for Editing, both of which were well-deserved.
Mirroring Michener’s own position, and in an interesting foreshadowing of later Vietnam War films, ‘Toko-Ri’ is not unequivocally in favour of the War. It is made very clear that a small minority of American men had drawn something of a short straw, requiring them to serve, dutifully, in a nasty, dangerous action largely ignored and forgotten ~ and discounted ~ at home. There is also equivocation about it’s actual usefulness and value. William Holden, the lead character, actively questions his service. Holden is excellent, as the bright, brave but reluctant pilot, with every reason to resent his call-up. Frederic March, as the Admiral, fair-minded and committed, is also very good.
This is no flag waver, but a story of mature service and duty, and of unexpected heroes. And the action sequences are second to none. A 5 Star war film, exciting, compelling and moving.
Die Geschichte, die sich eng an den Roman anlehnt, handelt von den Piloten der U.S. Navy, die beauftragt sind, eine Gruppe von stark verteidigten Brücken in Nordkorea zu bombardieren. Im Mittelpunkt steht das Leben der Piloten und der Besatzung vor dem Hintergrund des Koreakriegs, eines Konflikts, der für alle außer denjenigen, die in Korea kämpfen, weit weg zu sein scheint.
US-Navy-Leutnant Harry Brubaker (William Holden) ist ein Marine-Reserveoffizier und Marineflieger, der von seinem zivilen Beruf als Anwalt zum Fliegen von F9F Panthers im Koreakrieg in den aktiven Dienst zurückgerufen wurde. Als er von einem Einsatz mit Kampfschaden zurückkommt, muss er notwassern und wird von einer Sikorsky HO3S-1 gerettet, die von Chief Petty Officer (NAP) Mike Forney (Mickey Rooney) und Airman (NAC) Nestor Gamidge (Earl Holliman) bemannt wird. Forney war schon oft in Schwierigkeiten geraten, weil er sich gestritten und einen nicht vorschriftsmäßigen grünen Zylinder und Schal getragen hatte, während er seinen Hubschrauber flog, um abgestürzte Piloten im Wasser aufzumuntern. Zurück an Bord seines Schiffes, des Flugzeugträgers USS Savo Island, wird Brubaker in das Quartier von Konteradmiral Tarrant (Frederic March) gerufen, dem Kommandeur der Carrier Task Force 77, der sich für Brubaker interessiert, weil er Tarrant an seinen Sohn erinnert, der als Marinepilot im Zweiten Weltkrieg abgeschossen wurde. Brubaker beklagt sich über die Ungerechtigkeit seines Rückrufs. Er soll - nachdem er für drei Tage in Japan seine Frau Nancy (Grace Kelly) und seine beiden Kinder sehen kann,
Vom Krieg desillusioniert wird ihm und anderen Düsenjäger-Piloten eine wichtige Mission zugewiesen: die Zerstörung der Brücken von Toko-Ri. Der Kommandeur des Geschwaders, Admiral Tarrant, bemüht sich, Brubaker trotz seiner Verbitterung vom Sinn des Kommandos zu überzeugen. In diesen 3 Tagen wird auch seiner Frau die Gefahr dieser Mission bewusst. Zuvor hat sie die Tragweite und die Risiken dieser Einsätze nicht wahrhaben wollen. Beim Anflug auf das sekundäre Ziel, Treibstofftanks am Boden in einiger Entfernung, durchschlägt ein Flaksplitter den Treibstofftank seiner Maschine. Nachdem sein Tank sich geleert hat, bevor er aufs sichere Meer kommt, muss er auf freiem Feld in feindlichem Gebiet notlanden....
Am Ende lassen drei Soldaten im Feindesland ihr Leben - der Befehl ist jedoch erfolgreich ausgeführt. Für die sehr spannenden Luftaufnahmen gab es zu Recht einen Special Effects Oscar. Als Antikriegsfilm ist Robsons damaliger Kinohit eher zwiespältig.
Pilot William Holden is unsettled by this statement. He resents being forced back into the Korean War. He’s already fought in the South Pacific during World War II. Called in as a reservist, he asks Frederic March, “Why me again?” The admiral answers “Nobody ever knows why he gets the dirty job.” Then he explains, “If we pull out, they (the Commies ) will take Japan, Indochina, the Philippines.” His words are a synopsis of American policy in the 1950s. We all were absorbed with Communism and the Cold War. I remember growing up on a base during this era and, yes, hearing air raid drills, Red Scare stories, and talks of spies everywhere.
This national fixation filtered from the top down. All of the military and the politicians thought this way. When Holden criticizes the war effort, he appears to be the lone voice of dissent. But he wouldn’t have been alone. Others too must have wavered between duty and desire. This film depicts his story.
Holden is a portrait of courage. When he attempts to write his wife about his premonition of death, his hand shakes and his body crumples. When he listens to the ship’s radio broadcast of a stateside football game, he shakes his head in bewilderment, unable to resolve the discrepancy between his dangerous mission and the carefree life led by Americans back home. When he stands at the end of the carrier looking into the endless sea, his face breaks into a sweat, as he realizes how much he values staying alive.
No other actor of his time showed moral pain the way Holden did. His handsome face and deep rolling voice are unusually expressive, reflecting love, anger, and fear.
In this story, penned by James Michener, Holden is portrayed clearly as a regular guy. His buddies include enlisted men, in particular his CPO Mickey Rooney, whose drunken brawls and obsession with a bar girl, contradict the dignity that Holden attributes to him. The pilot is also very much in love with his beautiful wife, Grace Kelly. During a short leave in Japan, they meet, and he tries to deflect her concerns about war by urging piano lessons for the daughters.
Eventually, the truth spills out. “The [Toko Ri] bridges span a gap between two mountains….Every kind of gun imaginable is hidden in those mountainsides. They’re just sitting there waiting for us.” The danger he faces explains his bitterness about being sent into battle. In a contrasting comic scene, the family takes a communal Japanese onsen (bath), and another family barges in to bathe with them. Holden’s and Kelly’s responses are quite funny.
The aerial and carrier sequences alone are worth viewing this film. At the beginning, a helicopter rescues Holden who is freezing in the sea. In another scene, sailors set up hooks, catapults, and cables for the jets on the flight deck. Several sailors manually push the F9F Panther into place before take-off. Later the jets soar across sky and over mountains in perfect formation. This is the real stuff, not CGI, and I found it more thrilling than Star Wars.
Regardless of whether or not this was a just war, our armed forces were protecting us and putting themselves in harm’s way. They did this, so we could continue living with freedoms that the enemy did not have, and this included the freedom to criticize the very men who were defending us. That is the essence of heroism.
