One of the best drama series in TV history about the adventures of the brothers Tom and Rudy Jordache. The two brothers are as different as night and day. Rudy is the serious student who clearly knows where he wants to go and takes the right steps to get there. He eventually becomes a senator. Tom is a freebooter who walks the path of life without a plan and takes everything as it comes. He has all kinds of jobs from boxer to sailor. While working as a sailor, he will meet his nemesis Anthony Falconetti. The series is based on the book of the same name by Irwin Shaw and could count on a good cast with Nick Nolte and Peter Strauss in the lead and supporting roles of Ed Asner, Bill Bixby and Susan Blakely. The most memorable supporting role is for William Smith as Falconetti, one of the worst bullies ever in a TV series.
