This is a staggeringly engrossing and effective movie, its settings both beautiful and oppressive, its incidents tense and eye-opening.

Rating: 3.5/4 --
The cumulative effect of Pierre Schoendoerffer's realist approach reinforces the unsparing nature of international conflict.

Product Description:
Shot as news reel footage, Schoendoerffer follows the platoon through the jungle as they are slowly annihilated in ambushes, in attacks and by diseases; capturing the inarticulate anguish and solitude of each man trying to survive.
