The film is based on the diary of Alvin Cullum York, one of the most decorated American soldiers of the First World War.

However, he demanded that his own role be played by actor Gary Cooper. The film was a great commercial success, applauded by criticism: it will be named eleven times to the Oscars, and Gary Cooper will receive the Oscar for best actor.
