The 4 Horsemen of the Apocalypse is a 1962 war drama directed by Vincente Minnelli and based on the novel by Vicente Blasco Ibáñez. Set during World War II, the film follows the story of Julio Madariaga, a wealthy Argentine patriarch whose family becomes divided by the war. His grandson Julio, played by Glenn Ford, is a playboy living in Paris who is forced to confront his beliefs and loyalties as Nazi forces occupy France. As the conflict escalates, Julio transforms from a carefree outsider into a man willing to fight against tyranny. The film uses the symbolic imagery of the Four Horsemen—War, Conquest, Famine, and Death—to underscore the destructive nature of global conflict. Though it aimed to be a sweeping epic, the film received mixed reviews and is often remembered for its ambitious themes and striking visuals.
