I am a sucker for WWII movies, especially when it includes Dana Andrews. So when I read the plot of "A walk in the sun", I was quite enthusiastic. Well, I must say how disappointed I was. First of all, the quality of the film was poor (for broadcasting). I saw it on TCM, normally a champion of film restoration. In addition, the dialog was boring. Attempts to create empathy for the characters fell woefully short. There was no depth in conversations, and it went on forever! The one bright spot was seeing such wonderful actors: Lloyd Bridges, John Ireland, Richard Conte, Sterling Holloway, and the aforementioned Dana Andrews. I would recommend a pass on this one.
