The Sand Pebbles (1966) |

|
|
The Sand Pebbles tell many stories. It's the story of China, a slumbering giant that rouses itself to the cries of its people - and of the Americans who are caught in its bloody awakening. It's the story of Frenchy (Richard Attenborough), a crewman on the USS San Pablo who kidnaps his Chinese bride from the auction block. Most of all, it's the story of Jake Holman (Steve McQueen), a sailor who had given up trying to make peace with anything - including himself. Nominated for nine Academy Awards® including Best Picture and Best Actor for McQueen, The Sand Pebbles blends explosive action with stirring drama and romance.
