Plot
From the pen of best-selling author Herman Wouk (The Caine Mutiny, Marjorie Morningstar, Youngblood Hawke) comes The Winds of War, the globe-shattering story of turbulent times and America's sudden entry into World War II, as seen through the eyes of one American naval family. Robert Mitchum heads an all-star cast, portraying career naval officer Victor "Pug" Henry, a man who, along with his wife (Polly Bergen) and three children (Jan-Michael Vincent, Lisa Eilbacher, Ben Murphy), will witness firsthand the growing maelstrom leading to war. Ali MacGraw, John Houseman, David Dukes, Victoria Tennant, Elke Sommer, Ralph Bellamy, Topol and Peter Graves also star in this epic, sweeping, seven-part drama that was filmed in six countries and won three Emmy Awards including Best Cinematography.
