On this day, December 16, 1983, Uncommon Valor premiered in theaters. Directed by Ted Kotcheff, this action-packed war drama stars Gene Hackman, Patrick Swayze, Fred Ward, and Robert Stack, along with a talented ensemble cast.

The story follows a retired U.S. Marine Colonel (Hackman) who assembles a group of Vietnam War veterans to rescue his son and other American POWs believed to be held in Laos. Combining intense action with a heartfelt narrative, the film became a box office success, grossing $30.5 million and earning praise for its emotional resonance and gripping performances.
