This is an anti-war movie and that's fine with me, but they really hit you over the head with their moralizing. James Garner is great as the coward but goes on and on about how smart he is to be a coward and how stupid the rest of us are to go along with all the war jingoism.
Julie Andrews is the co-star and very attractive but her character also feels the need to explain herself in oral essays. People don't act like that in real life. Not now and not in 1964.
Paddy Chayefsky wrote the script and deserves most of the blame for the preaching. Still - it's a good movie though i wish they'd made it in color.
