Lee Marvin heads an impressive cast in director Robert Aldrich’s highly entertaining WWII saga, "The Dirty Dozen." Just before the D-Day invasion, Major John Reisman (Marvin) assembles 12 of the Army’s most dangerous convicted criminals and gives them a chance to redeem themselves by taking part in a dangerous behind-enemy-lines assault on a meeting of several high-ranking German officers. With Ernest Borgnine, Charles Bronson, Jim Brown, Richard Jaeckel, Telly Savalas, and Donald Sutherland. Then, Marvin, Borgnine, and Jaeckel reprise their roles in "The Dirty Dozen: Next Mission," as 12 new recruits from Army prisons head out on a suicide mission to assassinate an SS general.
