    great movie !!
    I saw this a second time after reading the Herman Wouk novel and liked it much more.

    The acting, scenes are wonderful and adhere closely to the book.

    My only comment is that Ali McGraw is too old for the Jewish girl she played. In addition, Victoria Tennant is really terrific. Difficult to see how anyone could ignore her after her charming appearances.

    I wish this video(or DVD) could be lumped up together with those for 'War and Remembrance". That would be great !!

    I am not sure how Mr Wouk got the information. Historical facts, imagination or inside information ? They all seem accurate and credible.

    Don't miss it.

    Make sure watching it several times.
