Anzio

American troops land unopposed on Italian beaches during World War II, but instead of pushing on to Rome, they dig in and the Germans fight back ferociously. Robert Mitchum stars as Dick Ennis, a war correspondent who accompanies US Army Rangers for an amphibious landing, while Peter Falk plays Cpl. Jack Rabinoff, a Ranger guide who becomes a key figure in the battle. The film depicts Operation Shingle, the 1944 Allied seaborne assault on the Italian port of Anzio during World War II, with Ennis and his fellow soldiers facing heavy casualties and grueling conditions as they try to outflank German defenses.
