Review of To Hell and Back (1955) by Baltazar S — 29 Dec 2008
A good all around war movie. It is the only movie I know where a real WWII War Hero, who won the Medal of Honor, actually played himself and depicted the battle which won him the medal. If he had to do it again today I am sure he could have demanded it be more accurate.
If you read the book you will see there was alot more to the war than shown in the movie. Murphy was one of the first Veterans to lobby authorities to assist vets with post tramatic stress disorder, which he suffered from.
Back in his day no one understood what war does to vets mentally.
