A person conditioned j to the
standard acting, jdot and [diVectipti
of American movies will f(nd ‘Tul
san” somewhat confusing to say
the least. This j movie 1 actually
deals With five difftirent jlocfitiOns
and »ix unrelated stpries.|
The central th^me of ‘Taisan,”
if such can be pointed out, centers
around the American invasion and
subsequent drive! through Italy.
The reactions of jthe population to.
the GI fighters jam! the counteiv
reactions of the US ti-pops are
sincerely recorded. /
A monastery is the Scene of
the first sequence. An Kalian
girl, who distrusts the AgiCricans
as much as the Germans, con
sents to lead ai patrol through
the minefields and thus gain ac
cess to the monastery. S)»e even
tuality comes to! Know gnd like
nc of the soldiers in particular;
after his deatlv, she passionately
starts Mlling/Gerihans.!
The secong sequence is concern
ed with a -Negrol MP who, when
drunk, is taken for a quick roll by
a group 7 of Italian urchins. The
MP later, in a iober stjite, finds
the qKlian boy vfho has taken his
boot^. After understanding the
lad’s true plight, 1 the MP releases
im and allows the boy to ke|ep
/the stolen boots. |
The most iihportant; story,
seemingly, is the third one. It
tells of a US ta'nk-drivdr named
Fred who in a hurried trip
through Hon\c w)th the spearhead
. troops, meets a pure apd pretty

He again meets the girl hut
fails to recognize ht*r because of
the strcct-wnlkjtig state to which
she has degenerated. He nccotn-
panies her to u hotel roohi and
proceeds to/talk about the girl wh'to
he hud hm before and the Ibvc he
feels for her. The unrecognized
subject of his vocal reveries then
understands that Fred is in love
with a dream and decided to profit
by this love.
/She leaves and has her address
/kiven to Fred with the message
that it is there he can find his ac
quaintance of his first visit through
Rome. The ironic twist evolves
when Fred, with address in hand
starts looking for the girl and
joins a group of soldiers talking
on a corner. While the girl is sup
posedly awaiting his arrival, he
crumples the paper bearing her
address,, throws it away, and leaves
with the other GIs.
The Florance tale concerns ap j
American, nursed attempts to go
through the enemy lines to see
her Italian partisan lover who
has beep wounded. Alfter severe
difficulties she learns that the
trip is in vaip as the loved ope
is dead.
Three chaplains one Catholic, one
Jewish, and one Protestant, are
given quarters for the night in an
impoverished Catholic monastery
in central Italy. When the occu
pants learn of the different faiths
represented by the Jewish and
Protestant chaplains they decide to
fast so that God will grant thepi
the power to convert the two men
to the inmates'ftftith.
The final story deals with the
atrocities of the Germans. A
fighting group represent i n g
nearly all uf the allied units is
trapped and finally raptured by
the Huna who proceed to have
their somewhat warped fun.
