"The kind of old-school Hollywood melodrama you can't help but fall for." —Smash Cut

"Has an integrity, a courage, a warm liveliness about it which invites the deepest admiration." —The Spectator

At an Army barracks in Hawaii in the days preceding the attack on Pearl Harbor, lone-wolf soldier and boxing champion "Prew" Prewitt (Montgomery Clift) refuses to box, preferring to play the bugle instead. Hard-hearted Capt. Holmes (Philip Ober) subjects Prew to a grueling series of punishments while, unknown to Holmes, the gruff but fair Sgt. Warden (Burt Lancaster) engages in a clandestine affair with the captain's mistreated wife (Deborah Kerr). Academy Award winner for Best Picture, Best Actor in a Supporting Role (Frank Sinatra) and Best Actress in a Supporting Role for Iowa's own Donna Reed.
