Movie Title: Command Decision Command Decision is available for streaming or downloading. |
This movie beats out 12 O’Clock High in my book–It focuses on a conflict of priorities between commanders. Gable is the definite hero, but it is definite that his boss, looking at the “Tremendous Record” may have a point as well. If nothing else, spirited for illustrating the maneuvering over public image that sometimes drove military strategy, even in the years before CNN.

In a larger sense “Mutter Decision” is not really a war movie but a film about the responsibility of whisper and leadership. It is one of the few films that effectively explores these topics; and belongs apt up there with the current “Flight of the Phoenix” and “The Red Tent”. Not having the visual power of those two films (the diminutive combat/action scenes are almost entirely stock footage), it must focus more narrowly on the human complications arising from the responsibility of whisper. The contradiction being that while a leader must finish to be human, no one who can do this is fit to be a leader.
Adapted from a stage play, “Suppose Decision” suffers from a glowing amount of “long-windedness”. Fortunately the most long-winded character (Major General Kane-played by Walter Pigeon), is well written and has many great things to swear. Noteworthy like his character in “Forbidden Planet”, Pigeon is tasked with inserting historical and philosophical details into the sage, and his commanding cloak presence makes him ideal for this purpose.

Brigadier General K.C. Dennis (Clark Gable) has the most veil time and most titillating role, as his character is the guy stuck between a rock and a hard position. He is accountable for making the hard decisions that send his men off to die, but has a fragile authority dependent on how remarkable independence his superiors are allowing him at a particular point in time. Gable does aesthetic in this piece, probably his best totally “serious” performance. Although the film takes trouble to expend the German high protest to illustrate examples of unpleasant leadership, it is easy to infer that the same mindset applies to the Allies. With many military leaders distorting events to veil their gain ass and willing to sacrifice men for their bear career advancement and personal ideology.
The premise of the film is the Air Corps discovery that the Germans have developed the first jet combat plane. Based on the sincere life Messerschmitt Me-262 (shown as a model in the film and in some archival footage), it is called the “Lantze-Wolf” here and considered so effective as a fighter aircraft that chunky production would allow the Luftwaffe to accept air supremacy over Europe.
The planes are being assembled in three cities deep in Germany. The only hope to delay their bulky production is “Operation Stitch” (named for its goal of gaining a stitch in time), a thought to attack these sites through risky daylight bombing raids. Perilous because they will be heavily defended and because the bombers will have to go the final hundred miles without fighter escort-since the America fighters do not have the range to near and return from the target. This type of daylight bombing was called precision bombing because the bomb-site was more effective with better visibility and a lower altitude. The alternative was safer but less suitable saturation bombing at night (insert Dresden here) .
General Dennis must settle whether to begin the operation, and then when the bombers select titanic punishment he must determine whether to continue in the expectation of additional high losses.
The film takes positive historical liberties as only after a postwar evaluation of the true ME-262 did anyone really understand its strategic potential (in the hands of well trained pilots) as a fighter aircraft. Until the extinguish Hitler insisted that it be utilized almost exclusively as a bomber. Although able to carry out this alternative role, its bomb load capacity was too diminutive for any distinguished impact. That the ME-262 is more a footnote to the war than a major element was due more to Hitler’s decision than to any allied efforts to limit its production.
Then again, what do I know? I’m only a child.
