The Last Days of Patton

Directed by Delbert Mann

With George C. Scott, Richard Dysart, Murray Hamilton, Ed Lauter and Kathryn Leigh Scott

Gen. George S. Patton now works a desk job for the U.S. military after World War II. In the midst of dealing with the difficulty of adapting to his dramatic change of lifestyle, Patton is involved in an auto wreck that leaves him in critical condition. While his body fails him, Patton introspectively reminisces about his relationship with his spouse, Beatrice; his childhood; and his days on the WWI battlefields.
