MacArthur, the Rebel General

Biopic tracing the controversial military man's flamboyant career. Beginning in 1942, when over half the air power under his command was destroyed, and continuing with the part he played in the post-war reconstruction of Japan, the attempts he made to become President, and his dismissal for insubordination during the Korean war, the film strives for a balanced portrait of the great man, showing both his flaws and achievements.
