Blu-ray Review The General Died at Dawn – Blu-ray Review (1 Viewer)

[t1g3r5fan]

The first director to win multiple Oscars, Lewis Milestone began his career working as an editor and an assistant director before Howard Hughes promoted him to the director’s chair in the mid 1920’s. Milestone was rewarded with critical and commercial successes like The Racket (1928), All Quiet on the Western Front (1930), and The Front Page (1931); one of the ten movies that Milestone made during the 1930’s, The General Died at Dawn, is a well mounted adventure bristling with suspense. Universal has released it previously on DVD, but Kino has licensed the film for its Blu-ray debut.
