“No bastard ever won a war dying for his country.  He won it by making some other poor bastards die for his country”.  Meet General George Patton; three-star general and five-star loose canon on a mission to not only win the war but battle as much as possible.  A skilled military tactician, but a without a shred of political skill, Patton’s complex characteristics were both invaluable and disastrous to the Allied forces.  This war epic follows the final years of World War 2 from Patton’s perspective.  Will military victory be enough to satisfy Patton…or the viewer?  Find out this week on Cinema Cemetery!
