It is a war drama
In the vein of Hamburger Hill
It is like Hacksaw Ridge meets 12 Strong
It follows brilliant maverick Col. James Y. Adams
And battle-loving veteran Maj. Virgil E. “Gene” Craven
As they fight for three hills atop Heartbreak Ridge
Problems arise when the well-dug-in Communists refuse to give ground and American commanders continue to send men to their deaths using the same ineffective tactics over and over.
Together, Adam and Craven’s love for their men and personal courage will create a strategy that captures the ridge line.
The idea came to me when I read Heartbreak Ridge by Arned L. Hinshaw to find out more information about the real battle mentioned in the Clint Eastwood movie of the same name.
My unique approach would be the brutality of battle contrasted with the bravery of the men fighting it and the courage of their officers who stand up for them at headquarters.
