One of my all time favorite movies, with one of my favorite actors, Montgomery Clift, also love Donna Reed and Deborah Kerr. This movie is like Casablanca every scene works and everyone perfectly casted.
Having played the Trumpet, Bugle and another B flat instrument the Coronet. If you know what you are doing you can make the Bugle sound like a trumpet.
I am 54 years old. I highly remember any scene of a movie I watched in my childhood. I watched this when I was 5 (when I was circumcised ) and remember crying. This is such a scene.
This is one of the greatest films ever made. 1953 academy award for best picture winner. I loved Stalig 17 and William Holden but Montgomery Clift should have won best actor In my opinion. Even Burt Lancaster was great. I loved frank Sinatra, Debrah Kerr has always been a favorite of mine in Cary Grant Movies, of course you can’t forget Donna Reed. Ol fatso Earnest who is a legend. Taps gives me chills every time I hear it and it makes me cry a military funerals I have attended.
The irony of the scene is that this is Prewitt's final victory over the commander. No one...NO ONE...on that base was going to force him to fight. He had earned that much respect.
Non c'è nulla da fare: tutte le volte che l'ascolto mi vengono le lacrime agli occhi! Sono uno dei vecchi che una vita fa fecero il servizio militare...LA NAJA! 😢 Erano tempi più puliti di adesso...2023 😮
As a Veteran, "Taps" has a special meaning and significance few who never served could understand. This scene, one of my absolute favorites from all military films, never fails to rekindle the memories, the faces and names of those brothers and sisters from every generation who gave their last full measure; evoking unbidden emotions even on this old-school NCO's face.
I have been listening to various videos to find the correct "Taps". Until I realized that they are all correct! Even the same person will likely sound slightly different from one play to another I surmise that that is what makes Taps even more beautiful. The deceased is honoured with Taps which is as unique to them as it is universal to all. The difference in how it was played is how the Soldiers guessed who played Taps.
Ah, this scene makes me study trumpet. So i bougth a one today, cheap Yamaha. I'm sure that I will play well soon the theme of movie ,from here to heaven.
My mother was 22, a registered nurse and volunteered for WW II. She was initially stationed at Tripler General Hospital in Hawaii. She was elevated to the rank of captain in the Woman's Army Nurse Corp. She went on in 1944 to Saipan and then to Okinawa tending to the wounded from those fierce battles. She came back and immediately went to Cleveland and helped in the finding of the polio vaccine and while raising a family in the early 1950s, she was the directress of nursing at a major cancer hospital. She is my definition of a hero.
Soberbia la película increíble interpretación de Mongomery clift, Frank Sinatra, Burt ncaster, Ernest Borgnine, todos sublime .
