A Bridge Too Far

At the end of the European War, the Allied forces gradually filled with optimism. In order to end the war ahead of schedule, allied generals across the country believed that as long as a fierce attack, they could go straight to Berlin and end the war early. So he rashly dropped a large number of paratroopers behind the German camp to capture the bridge across the Rhine in Arnhem. Unexpectedly, encountering the stubborn resistance of the German army, the Allied forces paid a heavy price for casualties. This was the most dramatic battle of the Second World War and ended in a tragic defeat by the Allies.

    ①The style is partial documentary, the lineup is All-star, which is better than grand, and loses more than rough ②Boarding is magnificent, and the airborne is magnificent. This kind of movie scene is unprecedented. ③Since you can guarantee that others will not die, then you must have the courage to cross the line of fire. Snatch it back and do not hesitate to do medical trouble ④ The Polish airborne brigade’s experience made the words of the Polish general even more sad and helpless. ⑤ Knowing that Bittrich’s armored division was in Anhang, the Allies still threw moths to the head, and the soldiers had always been used. The cautious Montgomery fought like Cai Xukun in Operation Market Garden

    The momentum of the film is grand, and the shaping of the war scenes has reached the top performance. The downside is that it is filled with a lot of unnecessary details and a lot of exaggerated dialogue, which greatly reduces the tension of the film. The acting skills of the two young handsome guys are also slightly immature~

    Major General Urquhart: Hancock. I've got lunatics laughing at me from the woods. My original plan has been scuppered now that the jeeps haven't arrived. My communications are completely broken down. Do you really believe any of that can be helped by a cup of tea?

    Corporal Hancock: Couldn't hurt, sir.

    [Urquhart accepts his mug of tea]

  • Brigadier General Gavin: What's the best way to take a bridge?

    Brigadier General Gavin: I'm sending two companies across the river by boat. I need a man with very special qualities to lead.

    Maj. Julian Cook: Go on, sir.

    Brigadier General Gavin: He's got to be tough enough to do it and he's got to be experienced enough to do it. Plus one more thing. He's got to be dumb enough to do it... Start getting ready.

    U.S. captain: What was all that about, Major?
