Review of Paths of Glory (1957) by Dragisa S — 28 May 2008

Great kubrick filmdealing with a true incident in world war 1 involving french soldiors who refused to go charge to there deaths when ordered, and there eventual trial by french goverment, and kurk douglas as sergent defending them, very controvershal for france and was banned for many years, great direction showing typical kubrick tricks, the war scenes look terrific, and photoghraphy as usual top form, possible conteder best film of the 50s with twelve angry men, and my second fav kubrick after dr strangelove.
