Lewis Milestone’s poetic character study of an infantry landing in Italy gives us a full dozen non-cliché portraits of men in war, featuring a dramatic dream team of interesting character actors. Dana Andrews was the only big star in the cast, joined by hopefuls Richard Conte, Lloyd Bridges and John Ireland; the standout crew includes Sterling Holloway, Norman Lloyd, Steve Brodie and Huntz Hall.

Yesterday, when "Avatar" officially became the highest-grossing film of all time (besting "Titanic," which many people thought held a record that could never be broken), we took a look at a handful of other historic numbers that are entirely safe from challengers.
