The Battle of Anzio was the beachhead invasion of Italy from January the 22nd to May the 23rd 1944 by Allied troops during the Second World War. A failure to use information gained by deciphering German codes led to the Allied troops being stranded temporarily after German attacks. Allied troops were held on the beachhead for five months before the breakthrough after Monte Cassino allowed the US 5th Army to dislodge the Germans from the Alban Hills and allow the Anzio force to begin its advance on Rome.

That would have to Anzio. The Germans not only pinned the Allies down from Jan 1944 until May 17, 1944 but the fighting there was quite brutal. As an example, the Ranger Battalio launched a night attack that was over-run by German armor. Out of 768 Rangers who went out, only 6 returned. A good book is "Anzio; The Fatal Decision" by Carlo d'Este.

In the opening scenes of the war film "Anzio," the filmmakers used the historic Italian coastal town of Anzio itself, particularly focusing on its beaches and ruins. The film captures the setting of the World War II battle that took place there in 1944. The use of actual locations adds authenticity to the film's portrayal of the events surrounding the Anzio landing.
