The Desert Rats (1953)

In North Africa, German Field Marshal Rommel and his troops have successfully fended off British forces, and now intend to take Tobruk, an important port city. A ramshackle group of Australian reinforcements sent to combat the Germans is put under the command of British Captain MacRoberts. The unruly Aussies immediately clash with MacRoberts, a gruff, strict disciplinarian, however this unorthodox team must band together to protect Tobruk from the German forces.

Enjoyed this very much. Watched it rented from library on VHS . Tape was a bit used and VHS needed head cleaning but otherwise it as good. To be watching a movie 54 years later and from before I was born is nostalgic in a way.

Impressive because before CGI so real tanks, planes and armies. Balls narrative that is not even close to how it went down and makes the Australian's out to be fuck wits that needed an Englishmen to come and turn them into fighting men.

Excellent WW2 drama. Solid plot, very realistic and gritty story. Good direction. Richard Burton is superb in the lead role.
