It's not great filmmaking. But it is all warm and effective and with more acting talent on display than you're likely to encounter in any three movies.

Five decades after blood flowed freely on its shores, Normandy is revisited by a handful of nostalgic World War Two veterans (Alec Guinness, Leo McKern, and John Randolph). It isn't long before the men begin to reopen old wounds as they explore the battlefield that shaped their lives -- for good and for bad. Two of the men search for an old flame (Jeanne Moreau) and, in their quest, find much more. A nostalgic, often comic, tale about loss and love. [More]

Reviews for A Foreign Field
Conceived as a star vehicle for Alec Guinness, this is a painfully slow, embarrassingly sentimental melodrama about WIII vets revisiting the site of their combat at its 50th anniversary; cast which also includes Jeanne Moreau and Lauren Bacall can't help
