''Ice Cold in Alex'' is a [[World War II]] film about a bunch of British soldiers trying to outrun the Afrika Korps in the North African desert in an ambulance after they're cut off from their column in the wake of Rommel's assault. The drama concentrates on the interplay among the characters in their struggle to cross the desert alive rather than on the war happening around them, but provides an important framing device for their personal struggle. |

Possibly the first post-War film in which the Germans were not simply depicted as a faceless and valueless enemy. |
