  • One of the most unusual 3-D movies ever made, "Cease Fire!" began as an idea by director Owen Crump, who scripted military-themed short films for Warner Brothers during WW2. Crump approached producer Hal B. Wallis ("Casablanca") with his concept for Cease Fire! Shooting a dramatic war film - using real U.S. Army Soldiers and being shot ON the battlefield during an active time of war.
    Most 3-D movies of the era used the format to accentuate and exaggerate artifice. Cease Fire! is the rare production to employ the stereoscopic process to heighten reality, emphasizing the brutality of combat, the vastness of a cold, unfamiliar terrain and the isolation felt by a patrol of valiant fighting men. Part documentary, part drama and part cinéma vérité, Cease Fire! still remains a unique and remarkable achievement in filmmaking.
    Originally released in theaters on November 24, 1953. For education, entertainment, enlightenment and inspiration. We hope you enjoy and even learn something. Never forget!

    So great to see the intro given by Mark Clark, one of the greatest 1st consuls ever to come out of America. This film has so much in it. The discourse within the press pool is a study in the decline of the 4th estate itself; loyalty wise that is. The senior fellow's remarks to the novice reporter that cynics like him should be put down like a lamed horse was very prophetic, as to what in the end it would all lead to. Senator Barry Goldwater, who was visiting Vietnam shortly after losing the 64 election to LBJ, certainly echoed those Korean ceasefire reporters words when he dressed down CBS's Morley Safer; "... If I were here there would be no g**** or reporters left."
    I don't know how many films had been around at this time showing evidence of Harry Truman's executive order on desegregation, but this must have had an impact; most likely polarizing all viewers.
    The ending was quite heartbreaking yet beautiful in its own way. The final patrol. The final death being the Korean soldier. Now the new Korea is born.

I enjoyed the short glimpse into the coordination at the JOC requesting air support and the Division TOC for Fire Support. Seldom do you see in a movie slices of action at Headquarters.

While I never saw any Thompson sub machine guns, I did see the M3 grease gun, at least that what the Gi's called them. While in Vietnam a soldier recovered an M3 grease gun that the tankers carried in the tank, due to space limitations. The soldier had difficulty getting it to fire fully auto, so as a officer, I just had to help him get to shoot, so like an idiot I screwed the barrel all the way in and intended to show him how to fire off a round and back the barrel off after each round. WRONG after just the first round fired, the weapon blew up and the breach cover went flying and the weapon was totally damaged. The upset soldier yelled "Thanks a lot Lt, hell I could have done that. We were all issued the M16 at that time.

    Interesante filme del género bélico sobre uno de los conflictos posteriores a la segunda guerra mundial, por enmarcarse en la "guerra fría", ya que las operaciones militares se limitarían en sus máximas expresiones, al perderse al principio de la misma toda iniciativa de avance real, por un estancamiento de casi tres años de ardua batalla hasta el cese el fuego efectivo. Siendo así la característica central de la guerra de Corea.
    Muchos historiadores la califican como "la guerra olvidada", la cual, a todas luces, sería el de plantar cara de las fuerzas de la ONU frente a las comunistas para evitar el derrumbe de ese país a la esfera de dominio de las fuerzas rojas.

      Both north and South Korea was a colony of japan until 1945. The US and Soviet Union compromise to diving Korea in half temporarily. There were plans to hold general peninsula wide elections, but the Soviets feared pro American candidate, president Rhee was going to win and rejected any elections. So no one knew what to do. North Korean dictator, Kim ilsung unilaterally sneak attacked the south. While the Soviets didn’t reject Kim, they were not going to get directly involved with the invasion.
      Meanwhile in the south, there were some American troops present. At the time, the UN Security Council consist of US, France, UK, China, Russia (still the same countries today which were the victors of WW2). China was recognized by the UN as the republic of China (Taiwan) and the Soviet Union did not vote because they withdrew from the UN out of protest. This gave unanimous decision by the UN to get involve with direct combat.

    Was most of this film "dubbed" by professional actors or were the original soldiers allowed to read their parts later?
    Also, when did the Army change the use of the M2 Carbine, so that so many enlisted men could use them? Were'nt
    they mostly used by officers?/ Korea was & is a costly semi-success, in that South Korea remains free! Yet, the 58k
    servicemen lost during the Vietnam War & thousands in Afghanistan & Iraq, have not stopped Communist aggression!

      What world ARE you living in? Afghanistan and Iraq were not fighting communism. Korea was a success. It is now one of the most advanced industrialized nations on earth.

    They should had picked a better officer for the opening, Clark was a terrible choice.
