The Men
A completely new experience between men and women!
Directed by Fred Zinnemann
Produced by Stanley Kramer Productions
A serious, introspective drama about a paralyzed war veteran's struggle with trauma and isolation, redeemed through the bonds formed with fellow patients and medical care.
Ken, a WWII GI, returns home after he's paralyzed in battle. Residing in the paraplegic ward of a veteran's hospital and embittered by his condition, he refuses to see his fiancée and sinks into a solitary world of hatred and hostility. Head physician, Dr. Brock cajoles the withdrawn Ken into the life of the ward, where fellow patients Norm, Leo and Angel begin to pull him out of his spiritual dilemma.
