    Paths of Glory, American war film, released in 1957, that elevated its young director, Stanley Kubrick, to international prominence. Its controversial portrayal of the French military prevented it from being shown in several European countries for years.

    The film, set during World War I, is anchored by Kirk Douglas’s powerful performance as Colonel Dax, a gallant officer in the French military who is forced to lead his men in a suicidal attack on a German position. The costly failure of the strategy leads Dax’s superior officer, General Mireau (played by George Macready), to shift blame to the troops, whom he accuses of cowardice. With the consent of his own superior, General Broulard (Adolphe Menjou), Mireau chooses three infantrymen to be condemned to death by firing squad in an apparent attempt at deterring any other soldiers from being derelict in their combat duties. Appalled, Dax, who had been a lawyer in civilian life, acts as defense counsel for his men in the vague hope of trying to bring justice to a kangaroo court. The men are ultimately executed, however, and Dax, along with the remaining soldiers under his command, is sent back to the front line.
