Tanks Are Coming, The

VHS, 90 minutes, WARNER

This is what they set out to do. This is why they ground out as much as 90 miles a day, why they stopped only so supply lines could catch up, why they went muzzle to hellfire muzzle with the Panzer 88's. The Ironbellies of the 3rd Armored Division have at last reached the enemy's homeland. The men know what to expect. They know they'll somehow cross the Dragon's Teeth of the Siegfried Line - and into a fierce tank/ artillery battle. After capturing the heroic Normandy invasion in "Breakthrough" (also on Warner cassette), director Louis Seiler ("Guadalcanal Diary") and produced Bryan Foy reteamed for "The Tanks Are Coming", a fighting tale of GIs spearheading the World War II push across France. Young screen talents and actual wartime footage combine in this sage of thundering tanks and determined Yanks, from a story by the master of war movie realism, Samuel Fuller ("The Big Red One").
