After his entire unit is killed in action, Captain James Castle is wounded and trapped behind enemy lines. To survive, he must cross enemy territory to rendezvous with a battalion, with a radio as his only lifeline.

A World War II historical biopic about Captain James Castle and the Battle of the Bulge. The movie's title is a misnomer, since the story focuses on his reliance on the radio, but that was not the radio's name or brand. There is some action and some suspense, but most of the movie is watching him walk and navigate the terrain. The one-hour and forty-two-minute runtime makes this a shorter WWII movie. Given the lack of action, slow progress, and confusing focus, this one may be worth a stream when available.
