This mini-series was MUCH closer to the original book than the original movie. The book was quite raunchy, but had to be "cleaned up" for the original movie. The 1979 mini-series was free to explore the dark underside of the story. And as always, Natalie Wood was superb! RIP, Natasha!
This is more true to the novel since it discusses the stuff they couldn't before like her having VD, the New Congress actually being a brothel, the homosexual meeting, as well as Capt Holmes being promoted out of the company rather than fired etc. Although I still like the atmosphere of the Burt Lancaster version because it was actually filmed at Schofield and had real soldiers in it.
+C Chen You're right. I've read the novel a couple of times and it's gritty. The first movie version was so stifled by the censorship of the day. Considering those constraints, it was well made. I just wish they could've cut loose with the original cast. Wouldn't that have been something!
WOW!! What a story..... Love Natalie Wood and the actor that played the Warden...awesome part he played. You feel like one of the Soldiers like Pru.......and his soldier friend he assisted. I was surprised to see Andy Griffith playing a top ranking officer....what he replied to the question, " How do we control these men?" (Soldiers) the answer he gave made me 'liv-id.'
Oh, Hannah you are so right! There was magic in that old cast. Even Mr. Borgnine made his role irreplaceable. Glad to see that I am not the only lover of the style of yesteryear.
When the 9th ID was training (BUT-AUT) at Ft. Riley, KS.circa 1966. They would play the original at Junction City - Drive In, every night. Have not seen the original again and this is first peek at remake. Truth is even stranger than fiction.
I'm too old! As much as I love Natalie Wood Sgt. Warden will always be Lancaster, Robert E. Lee Pruit, Montgomery Clift, Maggio, Sinatra,etc.although the original was sanitized from the book. And Donna Reed will always toss her lei into the surf at the end of that beautiful film. Sigh.
I remember watching this when it was on NBC in the spring of 79. That was before I saw the movie with Deborah Kerr and Burt Lancaster. I still think it did honor to the story and the pre WW2 Army that was not held in high esteem by the country. To this day I don't know why they attempted to make it a night time soap opera. As for the complaints, the TV sound and picture were sharp.
I watched it with my parents as a teenager, I remember it was a ritual, I forget what night it was on, we’d all sit in the lounge, and I enjoyed it. I was struck by the army bullying of Pruett. I have learned since that stuff like that really goes on in organisations like the military and the police force, power corrupts I suppose. People thought it was long and drawn-out. I remember my mum saying, it’s about time it wrapped up, and dad said, the tv commentator (as they had back then) said he thought it was going to go on till eternity.
OH ELLEN YOU AND YOUR TEAM HAVE HAD ME DO UP LAUGHING AT THE VIDEO S OF DOGS and Films from here to Eternity ,wow you are so funny.You LIVED MY DAY I HAD MY TORTURE POSSED P HIS O THERE POST HERE TODAY AND WAS NT AWAY OF THE C READING BONES
When the officer says this Warden could soon be an officer, I couldn't help see the edge, the sharpness of Lancaster in the part, a degree of class that this one lacks.
Question here; has this version been released on DVD? Checked Amazon and it's only available on VHS there. And are there two versions of the remake, one long, one short?
I was born in Hawaii and they were filming the movie at the time and we would watch them filming to original. Of Course I was just 1 yr old! The book is a fantastic read as well!
U know what would have made this great if Pru went to the general and said ok I will fight if I can pick my sparring partners And give him a list of all those who bullied him
Excellent tv mini series adaptation. Thanks for posting. In my opinion after reading the book and loving the movie, Steve Railsback better than Monti as the perfect Pru, Frank Sinatra perfect as Maggio, Burt Lancaster THE sergeant Warden. Ernest Borgnine and Peter Boyle equally menacing as Fatso. Debra Kerr is well, the fabulous Debra Kerr.
Can anybody else remember the scenes where Maggio got beaten by Fatso in his cell? I'm sure I saw those when I saw this in 1979! Fatso was very sadistic, at the beginning Maggio was though, but as time went on he would beg Fatso not to beat. Have those scenes been cut out? Anybody remember them???
As soon as I saw Devane's name in the opening credits, I went to another movie. Could never accept him as anything more than a character actor....at best.
Oh Damn! I thought this was gonna be the original "silly me" I've seen the original 6 or 7 times. This I'm sure is gonna be cute, But it's gonna make crave Montgomery Cliff and the old gang. (gotta watch something else}
I have mixed feelings about this movie. First, I think Devine is a good actor but he was miscast here. New York accent with beaver teeth, having an affair with a classy woman. Natalie too was out of place. Secondly, the movie, plot itself. Makes one wonder how the military functions at all with such apathetic louses. And no redeeming ending. No James Michener here. Anyway that’s my opinion. Yet it was interesting to watch.
Something was seriously wrong with the army if the considered being a boxer more important than being a good soldier. If there was any justice Holmes would've have been booted from the army for what he did to Prewitt, just like in the old movie version.
another good remake which starred Kim Bassinger, maybe 15 years on, was 'the Getaway' remake...Alec Baldwin in the Steve McQueen role, Michael Madsen in the Al Lettieri role..Bassinger plays it a lot more hands on Bonnie to Clyde, than McGraw played it..,
Boy this is a real hatchet job. Both good actors but completely the wrong cast. I hate remakes to begin with but this is a kik in the crotch to thd original !

Ya poor Natascha. That prediction early in her life, that she avoid dark water, was tragically realized in 1981. 😟
Natalie is my favorite actress, love her in this. I love her in everything :)
Same here. There will never be another actress quite like Natalie Wood..
Thank you for posting this. Please don’t ever take it down.
Thank you for posting this for free!!!
The original is one of my fave all time movies. This re-make is pretty good too. Can't say that about most re-makes.
A really big thanks for uploading this.
this was a good engaging remake, saw it back at the time...Devane has the military-sergeant charisma to play Warden..
Devine looked like the black sheep of the Kennedy family ( that's if there were ever any white ones).
I totally agree with you about Devane. I believe his acting abilities were way underrated.
I'm a huge James Jones fan, have never gotten the opportunity to see the tv movie though. Thanks so much for sharing this!!
This is great, thanks so much for uploading it
Always wanted to see this version...wonderful...thanks for the upload
agreed, but cast not in league with that of movie...exception: Natalie Wood. The rest, pretty weeak sisters.
@@donaldwilliams9030 William Devane was good.

Melanie Hamilton the uncensored from here to eternity would have been the best film of the 50s
WOW!! What a story..... Love Natalie Wood and the actor that played the Warden...awesome part he played.
You feel like one of the Soldiers like Pru.......and his soldier friend he assisted.

So sorry for your loss my sincere condolences...thank you to your husband for his services I salute him🇺🇸🇺🇸
Natalie Wood...Kim Basinger...yeah, I'll watch this.
The guy playing Pru did a REALLY good job.
No one can take the place of Burt, Montgomery, and Frank, and the rest of the original cast, although I love Natalie too!!!
Specially Deborah Kerr...
Oh, Hannah you are so right! There was magic in that old cast. Even Mr. Borgnine made his role irreplaceable.
Glad to see that I am not the only lover of the style of yesteryear.
My sentiments,exactly.Besides what was mentioned already,let’s not forget the great sound track of the original,the re-enlistement blues etc.
agreed, and I think Kim ddid a great job as Lorene, in league with Donna Reed.
Best version!!
Absolutely not this pales in comparison to the original.
QUESTION: Why is this video in such overwhelmingly low resolution? Isn't there a way to see this video anywhere in higher resolution?
It's possibly the result of the original picture having been taped instead of filmed: tapes always get fuzzy.
No sound! luv that!
of all the recreated roles, Natalie Wood is the super star of this remake. Kim, missed Donna Reed, which was surprise.

Sure would like to see Pearl the 1978 mini series uploaded here but its only on V.H.S. thanks for the share.

Devane is excellent here,so is Railsbeck
In 1980 TVB Pearl From Here to Eternit.
From Here to Eternity is the debut novel of American author James Jones, published by Scribner's in 1951.

a good film , ... , , .
Alan Beckwith, steals the stage, in this production.
Ninguém pode fazer a cena perfeita na praia como o Burt Lancaster jamais esquecerei ele foi super sexy
Makes me want to lament

Oh look at the awful spelling,physiotherapists the WORST .PHONE TOC AHA
+Patti Cowie lol
Kim Basinger sure looks different from her later appearances.
r.i.p natalie wood.
Kinda spooky to see NW frolicking in the water.
When the officer says this Warden could soon be an officer, I couldn't help see the edge, the sharpness of Lancaster in the part, a degree of class that this one lacks.
Question here; has this version been released on DVD? Checked Amazon and it's only available on VHS there. And are there two versions of the remake, one long, one short?
Don't think this will ever get digitally remastered....
Aaah! Fort MacArthur.
Can anyone upload the older version? Thanks
Natalie was scared to death of water and yet she drowned, I guess???
Was this a tv miniseries.?
As you say! However, the Original B & W, Original Cast version is STILL the Greatest. PEACE !!
Natalie Wood at 22:12
Natalie was beautiful but Kim was in The Natural and she looked better than any woman I’d ever seen.!
Kim truly defines what it means to be gorgeous. Such an etehreal quality I cant imagine an angel being prettier.
@@teecna2669 Yes she does and a young Sharon Stone was beautiful.
Yeah, Cpt. Holmes has misplaced priorities; would not be tolerated much in the real life Army, but it makes for a good story.
I was born in Hawaii and they were filming the movie at the time and we would watch them filming to original. Of Course I was just 1 yr old!
The book is a fantastic read as well!
1941 she's dressed like the 80's
In that first scene she wasn’t.
Very good music by Walter Scharf
They dont make movies like this any more
U know what would have made this great if Pru went to the general and said ok I will fight if I can pick my sparring partners
And give him a list of all those who bullied him
And the part II?
At least it's in colour
Something the original lacked
Tight with their money undoubtedly!
It was in the fifty’s and black and white is considered art, even now.
amm... excuse me, but; what the hell!! have to see *Giorgio Moroder* whit this film?!! (I mean, in reference to the thumbnail) 0_o"?
I thought they’d had some music from the times? Glen Miller etc.
While Natalie Wood was a great actress, the original version with Deborah Kerr and Burt Lancaster remains one of my all time favorites.
Mine as well
Deborah didn’t look like her though lol
Which made her more believable as the cheated on wife.
where i watch this film tv in italian?
Excellent tv mini series adaptation. Thanks for posting. In my opinion after reading the book and loving the movie, Steve Railsback better than Monti as the perfect Pru, Frank Sinatra perfect as Maggio, Burt Lancaster THE sergeant Warden. Ernest Borgnine and Peter Boyle equally menacing as Fatso. Debra Kerr is well, the fabulous Debra Kerr.
Bullshit Steve ain’t even close to Monty who gave arguably the best performance in Cinema History in the original
Hahahahahaha, better than Montgomery clift??? You don't know much about movie acting eh! 🎥🙄
@Just think throwing insults about something as relatively 'trivial' as this shows you up, how embarrassing🙄
Too bad Captain Holmes didn't get busted in this one.
He doesn’t get busted in the book
A general put him up to it.
Can anybody else remember the scenes where Maggio got beaten by Fatso in his cell? I'm sure I saw those when I saw this in 1979! Fatso was very sadistic, at the beginning Maggio was though, but as time went on he would beg Fatso not to beat. Have those scenes been cut out? Anybody remember them???
They glamorized Hawaii. The weather is nice that's the only thing.
Is there a part 2?
As soon as I saw Devane's name in the opening credits, I went to another movie.
Could never accept him as anything more than a character actor....at best.
My dad thought he was ugly 🤭.
Nick Cave song...x from her to eternity. Check it out.❤❤❤
I wonder why in this remake the 1st SGT is a Jerk, in the old one he's an ok guy that cares about his men.
cat 11 more true to the novel
A smack in the mouth with a Baseball ⚾️ Bat that's SOLDIERING 😅
Where's part 2?
I watched
Oh Damn! I thought this was gonna be the original "silly me" I've seen the original 6 or 7 times. This I'm sure is gonna be cute, But it's gonna make crave Montgomery Cliff and the old gang. (gotta watch something else}

uh, oh such a onslaught of patriarchy
where i find this move in italian?
In italiano non ho potuto trovarla qui.
I prefer the remake to the original one.
How?
@@randywhite3947 the TV series is closer to the book. And the series is much more realistic than the film. The actors are excellent as well.
It’s more vulgar but I actually like both .
This is a different script than the other movie. Plot is the same. Is this one the way the bok was written?
Yes, this is much truer to the book.
Sound very low
I have mixed feelings about this movie. First, I think Devine is a good actor but he was miscast here. New York accent with beaver teeth, having an affair with a classy woman. Natalie too was out of place. Secondly, the movie, plot itself. Makes one wonder how the military functions at all with such apathetic louses. And no redeeming ending. No James Michener here. Anyway that’s my opinion. Yet it was interesting to watch.
James Jones lived the experience, so I believe his version.
If you hadn’t seen the first one you’d like this one. Maybe
No one has mentioned SUPERMAN in the "original ORIGINAL"?????
I wonder if enough of the cut clips survived to
ressurect the "REEL ORIGINAL"????????
According to IMDb none of George Reeves scenes were cut. It’s an urban myth. Plus, why would anyone mention him since he’s not in this movie.
The mess sgt took his lines.
People who had the chicken pox need to get a shingles shot.

Well the original could have never been like the book in 1950s. lol Natalie had some kind of bad reputation in real life.
Something was seriously wrong with the army if the considered being a boxer more important than being a good soldier.
If there was any justice Holmes would've have been booted from the army for what he did to Prewitt, just like in the old movie version.
Justice? In the army? Get real.
Deepcut barracks deaths!
THE ORIGINAL WAS THE BEST !
Remakes are never as good as originals. Why do they do it?
Very entertaining storyline but I do not like the high level of objectification of women in it.😑
Well gosh darn. Imagine that. Army men objectifying women in 1941 Hawaii. Who’d a thunk it? They were going to whorehouses, fer pete’s sake.
@@davidhull1481 hahahahaha
another good remake which starred Kim Bassinger, maybe 15 years on, was 'the Getaway' remake...Alec Baldwin in the Steve McQueen role, Michael Madsen in the Al Lettieri role..Bassinger plays it a lot more hands on Bonnie to Clyde, than McGraw played it..,
Hawaii would be a pleasant

All those hula girls!
never remake a classic - it just doesn't work
I agree!
That's why I am leary of seeing the new West Side Story, coming out in December It's nice that all the Puerto Ricans are really Puerto Ricans
The original was Better. Beautiful Burt Lancaster. Lovely Deborah Kerr. No it does not measure up. 😢😢😢

Why even waste your time watching this. The original cant be touched. This is a Knock off, and not even a good copy
No good nothing like the original and better actors.
