Richard Burton stars in this exciting film about the courageous men who
held off notorious German Field Marshal Erwin Rommel, despite being
hopelessly outnumbered.
The year is 1941, and all that stands between Rommel and the Suez Canal
is the fortress of Tobruk, which is manned only by a small Australian battalion
whom Captain MacRoberts (BURTON) must whip in to shape - fast!
JAMES MASON co-stars in a stunning portrayal as Rommel in this stirring,
action-packed story of the World War II heroes known as
THE DESERT RATS.
