    As expected of a classic~ I actually missed this film for a long time~ Only now did I realize that a lot of shots of Brother Spielberg pay tribute to this...

    A film about the "Market Garden" operation of World War II, adapted from the novel of the same name. Another masterpiece by the original author, The Longest Day, was also made into a classic World War II movie. From today's point of view, the production of this film is a little rough, and its authenticity is not comparable to that of modern World War II films (especially the shots of soldiers being shot), but in fact, the film is full of stars, and young images of European and American stars...

    I saw this film when I was a child and remembered a term - "Operation Market Garden". After watching it again after many years, I have a few thoughts: 1. There are really very few works in American war films from the perspective of a battle. 2. The golden age of these old actors is really good 3. Any plan must have a Plan...

    War is a collective activity in the end, any impulsive and self-indulgent behavior may cause a difference, even at the moment of victory, if you are not careful, you will inevitably lose the battle. Therefore, the situation of overwhelming situation basically does not exist in reality. Yes, more often, even if you win the whole war, you will always lose a battle or two. This is a typical British war film, full of stars and imposing, but unfortunately the narrative is too fragmented, the...

    1. About one hour and 18 minutes, the bridgehead was not captured by the Allies during the day, so they will start at night? ? ? Are the Germans all idiots? ! You are blatantly attacking, and there is no one to reinforce the bridgehead or to strengthen the alert. 2. In the part where the individual soldiers grabbed the airdrops, they knew that the airdrops were under the control of the Germans, but at least they covered the brothers who ran over and shot the enemy with guns to suppress them,...

    So procrastinated, scattered, and without waves, a surprise attack and defeat became a running account, and the cluttered atmosphere was even more unbearable. The German army inside has almost no sense of existence, and it feels like a blind cat meets a dead...

    On August 1st, according to the scenery, let go of the incompetence and exhaustion of a thousand troops. All the militants who clamor, instigate, and promote war should all be sent to fill the cannon...

    It was a failure of strategy, it was a feat of execution, it was the history of nine days and nights of the Battle of Arnhem. It turned the embarrassing tragic defeat into an eternal memory and lesson for future...

    It's a big investment and a big investment, but unfortunately the plot is a little bit worse. ....

    An entry-level war epic

    The distant bridge and the longest day are typical of the filming of the WWII period in the past, that is, the whole process is explained in detail, interspersed with the stories of the little people (but now it is the story of the little people, interspersed with the big background), there is no...

    soldier, victim of politics

    Operation "Market-Garden" was essentially the result of a rivalry between Montgomery and Patton. Both wanted to be the first to invade Germany and make their own exploits. Compared to Patton, Montgomery does not seem to have such a big bearing - perhaps this is also the characteristic of an English...
