Film Description
In Back To Bataan, John Wayne plays Colonel Joe Madden, a tough officer serving under General MacArthur during WWII.
When American forces are forced to pull out of Bataan, Madden volunteers to stay behind and organize the Filipino residents into a top flight guerilla force that will keep the Japanese on edge until MacArthur's promised return. There's romance amid the suspense and action as an attractive Manila resistance liason falls for Wayne's second-in-command, Captain Andres Bonifacio (Anthony Quinn), an earnest fighter trying to live up to his folk hero father's reputation. Madden, however, is too busy for women, preferring to spend his time communicating by radio to his valiant men as they count the boats and plant the mines. The Duke is nicely understated in his role, which acts as a counterbalance to co-star Quinn's typically impassioned performance.
