Plots(1)
John Ford’s ideas of duty and community coalesce movingly in this Technicolor CinemaScope epic, surveying fifty years of life at West Point, through the invention of the football passing game and two World Wars, as seen through the life of Marty Maher, an Irish-born physical education instructor.
