Summary: jeff's last film
Comment: this was a partnership between warner brothers and a filipino film company. It starred Jeff Chandler as Brig. General Frank Merrill who's whose company were top jungle fighters during WW2 in the CBI theater of operations. Other solid names in this production were some of the Warners stock company, Ty Hardin, Claude Akins, Andrew Duggan, Will Hutchins, and Peter Brown. It's a nice war film most notable by being Jeff Chandler's last film before going in for back surgery which was horribly botched leading to Jeff's premature death at the age of forty two.

Summary: A Relative Review
Comment: I've seen this movie many times since it stated showing up on TV. The real General Frank Merrill was my grandmother's first cousin. I believe the movie to be very accurate. I wish it had shown what happened to Frank Merrill after the war. He went on to be Highway Commisioner of New Hampshire and died in 1955. He is buried at West Point and if you look directly behind his stone you will see the grave of General Stillwell, his commander during the Burma Campaign. I will be adding this movie to my collection ASAP!

Summary: Finally
Comment: I have always wanted a widescreen version of the movie and now it is finally out and is a very good presentation. For those of you who don't know, Jeff Chandler was injured while making this movie and died of complications in the operation to fix the problem.

Summary: WWII action film with solid cast and good action sequences.
Comment: 'Merrill's Marauders' is a Sam Fuller production filmed in the Philippines for an authentic touch. Solid cast, plenty of fireworks and captures the misery and danger this outfit endured in Burma. Pretty factual and illustrates the frustration and fears of these gallant US infantrymen in the swamps of Burma. Check it out.

Summary: SAMUEL FULLER, OPUS 15
Comment: ***1/2 1962. Based on Charlton Ogburn Jr.'s The Marauders, MERRILL'S MARAUDERS was written and directed by Samuel Fuller. 1942. Led by Brig. Gen. Frank D. Merrill, 3000 soldiers head to a Japanese commanding post in Burma through jungle, swamps and mountains. Another war movie by Fuller which handles a theme, among others, already present in Fixed Bayonets: What differentiates a noncommissioned officer from an officer responsible for the life of his men ? The main interest of this film nowadays is the description of the strange relation existing between Jeff Chandler and Ty Hardin. Recommended.
