PATHS OF GLORY
September 21, 2012  | By David Bianculli

TCM, 9:15 p.m. ET

 
On TCM’s Adolphe Menjou night, this early Stanley Kubrick movie gets a prime-time showing. This is the anti-war film, starring Kirk Douglas, that so impressed the actor that he reached out to Kubrick to take the helm on Spartacus. This 1957 movie has fewer ornate set pieces than the usual Kubrick film, but the hand-held scenes of trench warfare, as well as the top-brass arguments afterward, are electrically charged.
