Tobruk
There is only a very thin line between heroism and cowardice. Courage is the will power, which no man has enough to spare. If used, it is soon exhausted. Courage is the capital, which we spend gradually. The deepest fear rises when a man is floundered by a current, all alone, having nothing to hold on and not being able to cope. Thus, the last order may be the order to pay out the account drawing to zero.
The plot of the film is freely based on the classic American novel “The Red Badge of Courage” by Stephen Crane, first published in New York in 1897.
