In his eighties, General Douglas MacArthur makes his final address at his alma mater, West Point. During the speech, military career is seen in flashback. The fall of Corregidor in 1942 and later victories in the South Pacific are recounted. MacArthur's efforts to restore dignity to Japan following its defeat in the war and prevent Communist Russia from taking over Asia are highlighted. And the loss of his post following his refusal to follow President Truman's orders during the Korean conflict is shown. (oficjalny tekst dystrybutora)

I can't help it, but this is a movie that was supposed to showcase Gregory Peck's mastery, not history and historical events themselves. Gregory Peck is excellent here, he handles pathos incredibly well like few actors can, but honestly, thanks to the film, the life of General MacArthur or any other historical figure didn't particularly capture my interest. But worth mentioning is what was broadcasted on the Japanese radio, which occasionally comes through in the film.
