About this product

Product Information

A sequel to the riveting and immensely popular THE DESERT FOX (directed by Henry Hathaway in 1951), THE DESERT RATS is a sweeping evocation of the North Africa campaign during World War II. In this expertly filmed adventure, British commando Captain Tammy MacRoberts (Richard Burton) takes charge of a hopelessly outnumbered but stubbornly defiant 9th Australian division at Tobruk in 1941 in their heroic stand against Field Marshal Erwin Rommel (James Mason, reprising his role from the first film) and his Afrika Corps. Their new leader wastes no time in alienating his men by implying they are inferior, but the Australians prove themselves both plucky and amusing. Among the garrison is Tom Bartlett (Robert Newman), MacRoberts's old English teacher at college who is a lowly volunteer and a raging alcoholic. When MacRoberts leads a commando raid behind enemy lines and is captured, he is taken to a German field hospital tent where he meets the infamous Rommel, the two conversing civilly about war in one of the film's most intriguing scenes. A fascinating and exciting tale, THE DESERT RATS is beautifully photographed, and the interplay between the characters enhances the already interesting, factual story.

GREAT WWII ACTIONER !!!!
For those of you who have a thing for great acting as well as great adventure, get a bowl of popcorn and pull up a chair !!! "THE DESERT RATS", which pays homage to the heroic stand made by the British (actually the AUSTRAILIANS) at TOBRUK, a key Libyan port, against the German Afrika Corps during WWII. Leading the defenders is noneotherthan RICHARD BURTON, who plays a British Captain, placed in charge of a company of the headstrong Austrailians holding Toburk; facing another heavyweight British talent (JAMES MASON) in the role of Field-Marshall ERWIN ROMMELL, Nazi Germany's most honored, and most DANGEROUS commander in the field. Highly unpopular at first Burton's character, named MAC ROBERTS, must win the respect of his new command while he must quickly whipped them into shape. A ...

Highly unpopular at first Burton's character, named MAC ROBERTS, must win the respect of his new command while he must quickly whipped them into shape. A rather sentimental subplot involves the captain finding his old teacher amongst the troops, in a rather sorry state being drunk as well as being a coward; in turn becomming friends and culminating in a climatic event that helps humanize Burton's charatcter with his command as well as the audience. Too bad this movie is only 90 minutes long, but believe you get more than enough for your money's worth. Among the DVD features includes subtitles that translates the German lines betweeen Rommell and his troops at key points, which may or may not be welcome by the fans of this film; and also includes some previews from the FOX WAR CLASSICS collection.

The Desert Rats
In this sequel to one of the all time favorite war movies, The Desert Fox, World War II British commando Richard Burton takes charge of a defiant, but vastly outnumbered Australian division in their heroic stand against the German troops of the Africka Corp led by legendary German Field Marshal Erwin Rommel (James Mason)- in North Africa. The movie is based on a true story of an includes one of the commando raids that damaged the german supply lines that consistantly harassed Rommel, keeping him off balance, thus preventing him from achieving his final goal of capturing the Suez Canel.
