TBA • NR • Series • Catalog pick

Into the valley of Death rode the six hundred. Inspired by history and Tennysons poem, The Charge of the Light Brigade tells the tale of a band of British Lancers who challenge an army of 25,000 Russians. The films highlight: the charge itself, a masterful, pulse-pounding nine minutes of thundering hooves and flashing sabers that stands up magnificently against any Hollywood action scene of today - and brought 1936s Assistant Director Oscar to Jack Sullivan for his staging of the vaunted sequence. Errol Flynn, fresh off his success as Captain Blood, stars as the leader of the 600 horsemen. Olivia de Havilland, his Captain Blood leading lady, costars. And legendary Max Steiner makes his Warner Bros. Debut a memorable one with his stirring, heroic musical score. Here and forever, the Light Brigade rides. Only the best buy direct from GRUV
