Set in 1943, this explosive epic centers on Corporal Steiner (James Coburn), an accomplished but war-weary combat veteran leading a group of German soldiers on the Russian front. Steiner's authority comes under attack when Captain Stransky (Maximilian Schell) takes over command of his troops. A Prussian aristocrat, Stransky has one goal in mind: to win the coveted Iron Cross, Germany's highest medal, at any cost. The two military aces soon face off in an intense and deadly battle of wills.
Highlighted by Peckinpah's trademark balletic violence, ultra-realistic battle scenes, and a top cast that also includes David Warner and James Mason. Orson Welles called it the greatest antiwar movie since All Quiet on the Western Front.
