Review of Patton (1970) by Dann M — 19 Nov 2014
George C. Scott stars in the powerful and introspective WWII biopic Patton. Co-written by Francis Ford Coppola, the story follows the exploits of Gen. George S. Patton, from his desert fighting with Rommel in North Africa to his unstoppable march across the European continent with the Third Army.
Scott gives a career performance, bringing real depth and complexity to Patton. And, composer Jerry Goldsmith does an extraordinary job at creating an iconic score that embodies the triumph and passion of the warrior spirit.
A sweeping historical epic, Patton presents a fascinating look at one of the most accomplished generals in American history.
