Allan Dwan’s SANDS OF IWO JIMA recreates one of the most famous war photographs in U.S. history, "Raising the Flag on Iwo Jima," and is the quintessential WWII film – emotionally gripping, punctuated with intense battle scenes, all bound together by Wayne’s larger-than-life performance. John Wayne earned a 1949 Best Actor Academy Award® nomination for SANDS OF IWO JIMA in one of his most iconic roles, as the battle-hardened leader of a squad of recruits.

SYNOPSIS
Haunted by his personal demons, Marine Sgt. John Stryker (Wayne) is both hated and feared by his men, who see him as a cold-hearted sadist. But when their boots hit the beaches, they begin to understand the reason for Stryker’s rigid form of discipline, as he leads them into one of the most treacherous battles in the Pacific.

Wildwood, MO 63040 B&B Theatres has been family owned and operated since 1924 when Elmer Bills Sr. opened a movie house in Salisbury, MO. The future Mrs. Bills played the piano for silent movies. During the company’s 90 years, and four generations of family involvement, it has seen the coming of sound, color, Technicolor, stadium seating, multiplexes, and digital cinema. B&B Theatres is now the 9th largest theatre chain in America and has 50 locations with over 400 digital screens across eight states.

Well, I'm screwed as none of those theaters are in my neck of the woods so the BD on November 11th will have to do. A great film with one of Wayne's best acting performances.

The B&B Theater in Texas is very close, but their idea of a giant screen is 50-feet wide. One nice feature in this auditorium is a balcony with recliners and food/drink service with an open bar.
