Due marines e un generale (translated: Two Marines and a General, internationally released as War Italian Style) is a 1965 Italian comedy film directed by Luigi Scattini. The film puts together the famous Italian comic duo Franco and Ciccio, and the silent cinema icon Buster Keaton.

The Keaton role is a mute role, except for the words "Thank you" that he pronounces in the final scene of the film.

Plot

Two US Marines who are so incompetent that they are sent to the European Theatre of Operations end up in the Battle of Anzio where they face the Germans' giant artillery piece "Anzio Annie".
