FROM HERE TO ETERNITY

Fred Zinnemann's powerful and fervent multiple Oscar-winner - featuring one of the all-time most famous Hollywood scenes - still packs a punch today.
Columbia
At an Army barracks in Hawaii in the days preceding the attack on Pearl Harbor, lone-wolf soldier and boxing champion "Prew" Prewitt (Montgomery Clift) refuses to box, preferring to play the bugle instead.
Hard-hearted Capt. Holmes (Philip Ober) subjects Prew to a gruelling series of punishments while, unknown to Holmes, the gruff but fair Sgt. Warden (Burt Lancaster) engages in a clandestine affair with the captain's mistreated wife (Deborah Kerr). This Columbia classic, which won eight Oscars, is chiefly remembered for the iconic scene of Kerr and Lancaster rolling about together in the Hawaiian surf, but there is so much more… especially a magnificent ensemble cast that also includes Frank Sinatra and Ernest Borgnine.
