“It’s what the navy calls mutiny.” One of my favorite scenes in a movie FILLED with great scenes.

[ryanmedina]

One of the few movies I would always sit down and watch with my dad.

[coverscape]

Reissman sees Franco's intransigence as an As in bootcamp situations, the Major cultivates Franco as a leader in the ranks - in this way, helping to develop cohesion and team loyalty

[actioncom]

"You're gonna get yourself INTO hot water, Franko." LOL

[davidrubio]

Love this movie. I was about 16yrs old and my mom sat me down to watch it. She was a big fan of Lee Marvin. That was 1984. I really enjoyed it.

I still watch this movie 36 years later

Best bit is Maggot was about halfway done when he joined in the protest .

[bandini]

Lee Marvin was an absolute badass in a way you don't find in today's films, even among the muscle boys that live in the gym.

[WayneKing]

Lee Marvin was a Marine during WWII in the pacific theater. A scout sniper. Awarded the Purple Heart.

[james]

Richard Jaeckel never seems to get any credit, but he is perfect as the tough sergeant. WWII vet like the others. So much star power that he gets overlooked, but he really provides the frame in which everyone else can chew the scenery. Great acting job.

[BOBBIEVALINTINE]

I love how Franko refers to himself in the 3rd person from time to time. "When Franko tells it he means it"

[monikasvarovska]

Franko is just adorable. An angry little man who needs to be put to his place. Gotta love him.

"Who is refusing to shave?"
"We are!"
"Who is 'we'?"
"WE!" 😠

[R.J._Lewis]

I see that they don't like being treated differently, but shaving with cold water really is no worse than shaving in warm water. Now BATHING in cold water is a different story altogether.

[brucefranklin]

Love this scene and look at lee marvin hes smart.... he knows the psychology of men especially psychos like this dozen its beautiful.

[nicholasroberts]

When they were making this part of the film near Chenies, Hertfordshire, UK, the cast lunched one day in a local pub, the Bedford Arms. My dad happened to be "Lunching" in the same pub with work colleagues. Apparently, at the end of the meal, Clint Walker queried the bill. All six foot plus of him !

[ericseal]

Franko does have a good point, "shaving in cold water" does suck!

[sonnysantana]

best line to the movie franko ask the limey tart to dance and she says their's no music , and franko says so hum 😂

[stormhawk]

Lee Marvin’s character was waiting for this moment. He wanted a unified rebellion.

[alanstrong]

I saw that movie September 1967. Franko is the champion.

[benny]

That's what he wanted to see, the team gelling...

I remember watching this movie as a kid in Nigeria in 2001. We had TCM for free on cable and i just randomly stumbked on it. I don't know why but i was hooked! Maybe cause my parents and I woukd watch WW2 documentaries and i also liked Sound of Music. So the film actually appealed to me. I enjoyed it so much
