Robert Wagner stars as insensitive Southern landowner who gets a much-overdue dose of humility and democracy when he's drafted into the army. Unable to curb his arrogance,
Wagner runs afoul of a sadistic military officer (
Broderick Crawford), who makes it his mission in life to break the recalcitrant recruit. After rescuing a fellow soldier (
Buddy Ebsen),
Wagner discovers he has the inner strength to change his outlook on life, and to stand up to the vicious
Crawford. Based on a novel by
Francis I. Gwaltney,
Between Heaven and Hell features uncredited appearances by
Frank Gorshin,
Scatman Crothers, and
Carl "Alfalfa" Switzer.
