Quella sporca dozzina (1967)
Nel 1944, alla vigilia dello sbarco in Normandia delle truppe alleate, un gruppo di dodici galeotti dell'esercito statunitense viene addestrato per compiere un'importantissima ma anche difficilissima missione segreta: assaltare un castello dove si trova il quartier generale tedesco della Francia. Se riusciranno nella missione avranno in cambio la libertà.La pellicola ha il merito di mettere in evidenza la formazione della "squadra". Inizialmente i dodici sono solo dei singoli disperati che stavano attendendo in carcere l'esecuzione delle loro sentenze. Dodici persone chiuse nel loro ego lentamente, sotto la guida del Maggiore, si trasformano in un gruppo affiatato e pronto a sacrificarsi per ognuno dei suoi componenti. Tutto questo arriverà a compimento nella parte finale del film, al momento dell'attacco alla villa occupata dai Nazisti.
