Cross of Iron

Sam Peckinpah's only war film is a violent and compelling story set on the Russian front in 1943, where war-weary German Sergeant Rolf Steiner (James Coburn) encounters Captain von Stransky (Maximilian Schell), a Prussian officer out to get Germany’s coveted Iron Cross medal at any cost. James Mason, David Warner, and Senta Berger also star in this action-packed epic based on the novel "The Willing Flesh" by Willi Heinrich. 132 min.
