Retro Trailer For The 1984 James Garner Action Comedy TANK
This week’s retro trailer is for the 1984 action comedy Tank, which stars James Garner as Master Sergeant Zack Carey, a seasoned military officer stationed at a U.S. Army base in a small Southern town.
In the film, when Carey arrives with his wife and son, he brings along his prized possession, a vintage Sherman tank. Conflict arises when his teenage son, Billy, played by C. Thomas Howell, runs afoul of the corrupt local sheriff, Cyrus Buelton, portrayed by G.D. Spradlin.
