12 O Clock High Blu-Ray
One of the "most harrowing and powerful war films" (Life) of all time, this "thrilling, dramatic flash" (The Hollywood Reporter) "bursts straight into the bright blue sky" (Los Angeles Times). This winner of two Oscars® combines "thrilling action" with "personal drama that reaches heroic heights" (The New York Times) and stars Gregory Peck in "the best performance of his career" (Look), a role that earned him an Oscar® nomination for Best Actor. At the height of World War II, Bomb Group 918 suffers devastating losses and Brigadier General Frank Savage (Peck) is sent out to take command. Due to his strong discipline, his men dislike him, and although Savage remains impersonal during heavy attacks and relentless firefights, he becomes personally involved in their well-being—a dangerous position for any leader, especially in the midst of war.
