Sands of Iwo Jima

Synopsis

Coming to the Temple Theatre on Sunday, November 10 at 1PM, we have a FREE matinee showing of Sands of Iwo Jimo, co-sponsored by Northern Armory LLC and the WW2 Traveling Museum,  in celebration of the United States Marine Corps’ birthday and Veterans Day weekend.

John Wayne earned a 1949 Best Actor Academy Award nomination for one of his most iconic roles, as the battle-hardened leader of a squad of recruits, in Allan Dwan’s SANDS OF IWO JIMA. Haunted by his personal demons, Marine Sgt. John Stryker is both hated and feared by his men, who see him as a cold-hearted sadist. But when their boots hit the beaches, they begin to understand the reason for Stryker’s rigid form of discipline, as he leads them into one of the most treacherous battles in the Pacific. Emotionally gripping, punctuated with intense battle scenes, all bound together by Wayne’s larger-than-life performance, Sands of Iwo Jima is the quintessential WWII film.
