This classic war film features the talents of Robert Mitchum and Robert Wagner. Mitchum is Major Cleve Saville and Wagner is Lt. Ed Pell, two pilots with differing demeanours. Mitchum is more reserved, while Wagner is cockier. Amidst the drama of war, romance rears its head, giving the soldiers more than they can handle. Based on the novel by James Salter, THE HUNTERS was directed by Dick Powell.
