   What if the Sand Pebbles had been filmed 10 years earlier?

   • If The Sand Pebbles had been filmed ten years earlier it might have been called From Here to Eternity Goes to Sea. Like the James Jones novel it's protagonist is a loner type who finds a sense of purpose and order in the military. As Robert E. Lee Pruitt loved bugling and boxing, Jake Holman loves his engines.

   Is the Sand Pebbles based on a true story?

   • Though it was based upon a bestseller (by Richard McKenna, whose work was adapted for the screen by Robert Anderson) and runs three hours, one waits in vain for something in Robert Wise's mammoth adventure saga "The Sand Pebbles" to be meaningful, to hit a nerve.
