- QuizPeter Falk in his 2006 autobiography "Just One More Thing: Stories of My Life" stated that he didn't like the script for this film, finding it hackneyed and full of cliché; he wanted to leave the film for these reasons. However, producer Dino De Laurentiis encouraged him to stay by giving him film-poster name-above-the-title credit as well as choice of writer for his dialogue. Falk stayed on the picture and apparently actually wrote his own dialogue.
- BlooperToward the beginning of the film, Cpl. Jack Rabinoff (Peter Falk) is in the back of a Red Cross ambulance with three prostitutes and grabs a shoebox-sized box labeled "Hershey's Milk Chocolate Multi Pack" with a "1968 design" of the Hershey logo. One of the prostitutes reaches into the box and pulls out a "1968 design" box of Brach's Milk Chocolate Stars. In addition to the two anachronisms, Hershey's and Brach's are two separate companies.
- Citazioni
Dick Ennis: [attending to Rabinoff who went into sudden convulsions] Look, fellows, I think he can use the air more then the company, okay? Anything anybody can do?
Cpl. Jack Rabinoff: No, unless you have a band-aid.
Dick Ennis: Very funny.
Cpl. Jack Rabinoff: Oh, it's murder. The stomach, you see? A Japanese grenade ripped my insides. Got medal in there. Under tension it contracts and all hell breaks loose. I must have been tense.
Dick Ennis: Good thinking. You belong in a hospital, not in a war.
Cpl. Jack Rabinoff: Yeah, that's what they said when they sent me home.
Dick Ennis: You mean you got out, then you went to Canada and joined this outfit?
Cpl. Jack Rabinoff: That's right.
Dick Ennis: How did you get past the doctors?
Cpl. Jack Rabinoff: Lied about my age.
Dick Ennis: You gotta be crazy. Half your guts blown out and you're back here. What for?
Cpl. Jack Rabinoff: Awkward time for a interview.
Dick Ennis: You got something better to do? Why did you re-enlist?
Cpl. Jack Rabinoff: Why? Because I like it, you know. I missed it, Ennis. With all the mud and pain, these clowns giving orders, there's nothing like it. Look, a guy sells shoes for 40 years. I live more in one day, I see more and feel more. I taste more, I think more. I'm more, understand? I'm more. There's more to living than breathing. Capisce?
Dick Ennis: Capisce.
Cpl. Jack Rabinoff: You're the same way, that's right. War is part of you. You belong to it and when this one's over, you'll find another and I hope I'm with you.
- ConnessioniReferenced in The Carol Burnett Show: Nanette Fabray and Steve Lawrence (1970)
A totally unconvincing war movie,which is surprising considering the people involved in it. The acting is bad.Robert Mitchum seems to utter his lines as if he was reading a boring book.The dialogue is childish and typical macho-stuff,but there are a few action scenes that are well staged.
