	Movie Review \| The Big Red One (1980) Samuel Fuller, Lee Marvin
		The film stars Robert Carradine as Zab, a Bronx novelist who, along with three fellow grunts and a tough-as-nails Sergeant (Lee Marvin), are part of the famous Big Red One rifle regiment.
		Besides Zab, there's cartoonist Griff (Mark Hamill), the squad's best marksman who, shockingly, can't hit a thing in their first engagement; the country boy Johnson (Kelly Ward); and Italian Vinci (Bobby Di Cicco).
		Once you accept that Fuller's movie will be bloodless, despite the fact that people die by the hundreds, you'll be able to accept that the film is quite good.
