About this movie

The "Blue Max", a coveted medal for achievement in flying, is ruthlessly sought by Bruno Stabel (George Peppard), a poor-boy German soldier who climbs out of the trenches and into the aristocratic air force. He is met with prejudice by the other contestants; wealthy snobs who look down upon his low economic stature. When he claims the title, he earns the respect of the General, and the General's wife, who wants to repay him in ways that the General might not appreciate.

Ratings and reviews

The British actors, kemp and mason carry this film. Peppard is not quite the rignt person for the role, but a good watch never the less!

A must see film ,all the players are good, George Peppard is outstanding in the final weeks of this European war story set in 1918.
