Cast A Giant Shadow
Added 10/7/2009
I have always liked this movie & its better on DVD than VHS. I can give that away now. More people should watch the older movies sometimes they are more entertaining than the new ones.

A strange movie about a Jewish war hero
Added 9/1/2009
In the American army as a Jew he only got so high, but
they made him a top general in Israel in 1948.
His trick of using jeep mounted antiaircraft guns
to defeat the Egyptian tanks shows you why.
The new road he build to Jerusalem is real history.
Micky Marcus is an American Jew who hasn't
been given his due in history?
Everyone thought Israel was through
before they began in 1948!

Good History...so so acting
Added 7/13/2009
This DVD is a good overview of the birth of modern Israel. The best actor in the movie is Senta Berger. Angie Dickenson is bit saccharin. Kirk Douglas is overly melodramatic. Yule Brenner is fine. Frank makes a nice cameo. What the movie does well...and very well...is the story about the Jewish struggle for a homeland. I rate it as something that all should view...at least once.

GREAT MOVIE
Added 7/3/2009
I grew up 4 blocks from where this guy lived in Brooklyn. Great neighborhood in Flatbush, all private homes.
True story.
Wonderful movie.
Kirk Douglas is one of the ALL TIME GREATEST actors in history.
Anything Kirk is in is GOOD, including this movie.
The birth of Israels first General in 2,000 years was an American.
God bless America, and Israel.
