The details
About this item
The hard fought war in the Libyan Desert proved to be one of the toughest and closest run campaigns of World War II. The battles, which raged around the fortress of Tobruk, saw some of the toughest fighting of the war. These are the three official films, which captured the events of the early desert battles for contemporary audiences. Using Allied newsreel footage shot in the air and on the ground along with captured Axis footage, these unique films provide a powerful record of World War II from primary sources. Essential viewing for anyone interested in World War II from primary sources. Choose your platform/edition, then jump in—story, missions, and extras depend on the version. Rated 4.5 out of 5. Customers praise this war film for its top British actors, with one noting it's Richard Burton's best work.

Review snippets: This is a Postwar Classic. I last saw this on TV back in 1981. I enjoyed it than and I do so now. Of course is isn't as realistic as contemporary War movies but the acting is very good. Read / Interesting story I never heard about before. Balanced audio and video quality. Highly recommend it if you enjoy WWII films. Read more
