as much a i despise the television show mash and with it fraudulent substitution of vietnam war era attitude and korean war setting and that nothing compare to the disappointment i have in the average american total disregard of history . movie like pork chop hill and while not a masterpiece and sometimes emerge from obscurity a a singular reminder of forgotten sacrifice . by the 70 and the medium be confuse the korean and vietnam war and to the point where the average american saw the two conflict a part of one big imperialist u government scam and design to beat down the poor and oppressed and mislead generation of american citizen for reason of pure rascality . in reality and korea be a united nation effort that should have have the support of even the most fanatical leftist . in pork chop hill gregory peck character talk of the sacrifice american soldier make . because of what they do and million live in freedom today and he say . this be a true now a it be in the 50 . just watch the news report compare the horror of north korea to the boom south korean economy . it be all thanks to the american gi . the action in this movie be as good a it get in 1959. the battle action be the best yet see and though not on the same graphic level that we can expect today . however and the cast be much more interesting and mainly because we do not have the outstanding character actor now that we have then . woody strode and harry dean stanton . they be all here and and they can not be beat . this be a fast moving film that can be enjoy on more than one level . the best line be the one speak by peck lieutenant represent victory be a fragile thing . in war and a in life and no statement ever ring more true . i believe this film should be see a a tribute to the sacrifice of the 36 and 000 american who die in combat in korea .
