Review of The Sand Pebbles (1966) by Scott R — 16 May 2013
Just the fact that McQueen's character is from Utah makes this movie worth seeing.
A good slow paced war drama that gets to small time naval warfare in China during Chiang Kai Shek's. It shows us more of the gritty details of saving missionaries, being in the Navy, furlough and relations with the natives. Arguably this is one of McQueen's best roles. Attenborough, Crenna and Bergen are a good supporting cast.
