They could save thousands... or themselves. Oscar winners Michael Caine and Cliff Robertson star in this "rousing" (Film & TV Daily) war drama about two reluctant heroes desperate to survive, even at the cost of their own allies. Thrilling, intense and harrowing, Too Late the Hero will keep you on edge from start to finish" (Cue)! Lt. Lawson (Robertson) has only one interest in the war - getting out of it. Sent with British soldiers on a suicide mission to thwart the Japanese communications system, he finds a natural comrade in the cynical Tosh (Caine). But when the two soldiers make a discovery that could change the course of the war, they must decide whether to save themselves... or become the heroes they never wanted to be. |
