     Back to Bataan
1945  NR  ACTION  1h 35min
CAST— John Wayne, Anthony Quinn, Beulah Bondi
MUSIC— Roy Webb  DIRECTOR— Edward Dmytryk

     A terrific action-packed war drama, chronicling the aid the Allies offered in the Philippines. John Wayne heads the cast as a leader of a squadron comprised of both Americans and Filipinos. They receive orders to take down an enemy gasoline dump. But en route they come upon a village in dire need; Beulah Bondi plays an American schoolteacher who helps to organize the fight against Japanese invaders. A tense adventure film that will have you rooting for the good guys every step of the way.
OUR RATING— ***
