What I found was in the two “IKE” movies,(Tom Selleck) in how they covered parts of Eisenhower’s life as the overall person in charge of where,&when the invasion would occur. But, the Selleck version made absolutely no mention of Kay Somersby role. Where this one, really did seem to show more of what “IKE” had to deal with, not only with “Monty”, but with several others in his command. I was impressed and hope that this was how it really was over in Europe.

@BobEngleman 2 ай бұрын

Thankfully, Tom's movie completely eliminated the slightest mention of Kay. Her considerable film time, did, as has been mentioned, turn Duvall's movie into a quasi-soap opera.

Our military deserves so much. As a Vietnam combat engineer vet I've seen the worst of dreams, I've embraced the unbridled bond that brothers create through horrible circumstances and I have embraced the military's strength through a unity that no civilian life style can copy. This movie, albeit "Hollywood-ized", still makes me proud to serve and to those who have not I ask Why not?

As I see the scenes in 1:04:43 bombing Germany think of him. My dad is the last of the brothers he's a Korean War Vet, USN and still very active at 91.

Darrin MacGavin's portrayal of George S. Patton, totally conflicts with the George C. Scott performance. In this movie, Patton, in discussing "The Battle of The Bulge" situation seems somewhat 'subdued'. He doesn't display the much celebrated aggressive tenacity that's displayed in "Patton". At 00:48:26, Ike asks Patton to break the German encirclement of Bastogne, and relieve the beleaguered 101st Airborne Div.

@nomadmarauder-dw9re 6 ай бұрын

Read War As I Knew It. Patton was ordered to send 10th A.D. to Bastogne, under protest. So, when he said he'd attack with 3 Divisions, one was already there. Even if technically it now belonged to Bradley. And the 10th stopped the Germans cold.

"Eighth Army"? The US didn't have an Eighth Army in Europe. Simpson's Ninth Army was cut off to the north of the "bulge" from the rest of Bradley's 12th Army Group, and temporarily put under Montgomery's 21st Army Group. The army to the south of the bulge was Patton's Third. Really surprised at an error like this.

Sumerby's book is partially what this is based on. Her book was disputed by all the main players that you see in this movie. It sickens me how they came out with this movie and it credits her side of the story which is a young woman's fantasy at best. Hollywood would love you to believe that Eisenhower had an affair. They hated him. What state is all documented if you care to research 😊
