The Big Red One is a 1980 American war film directed by Samuel Fuller. The Big Red One is the nickname of the 1st Infantry Division, organized in 1917. The story's focus is on the four privates who survive the war from beginning to end with their sergeant, who ignore the faceless replacements who continually arrive and die. The film portrays the horrors of war as it affects the men on the front lines.Zab: [narrating] Saving that Kraut was the final joke of the whole goddamned war. I mean we had more in common with him than all our replacements who got killed whose names we never even knew. We'd all made it through we were alive. I'm gonna dedicate my book to those who shot but didn't get shot, because it's about survivors. And surviving is the only glory in war, if you know what I mean
