    A Bridge Too Far Official Trailer #1 - Sean Connery, Michael Caine Movie (1977) HD
    It is near the end of WWII. The Germans have lost most of France, and the Allied forces decide to give them the final hit. They plan to drop thousands of paratroopers in Holland and keep a few key positions there, until reenforcements arrive. The most important spot is the bridge of Arnhem; once it's captured, it can block everything west of Germany
    MGM - 1977

Hollywood usually falls short but in this case, Redford's character displays the epitome of leadership under this most stressful conditions.

    I saw the likes of Saving private ryan and enemy at the gates as a child, and while i enjoyed them, i didnt care too much for them.
    But i do remember accidentally stumbling upon this movie, and i'm so glad i did.
    The sense of suspense and hopelessness towards the end is just too good. dialogue and cinematography are on point too.

      Probably you're just too young. I do remember seeing a lot of advertising for this film in 1977. But it was probably outshined by Star Wars that did almost no ads. At least I don't remember many.
      You're right about the cast. Pretty obvious they were going for an epic film to replace "The Longest Day." Oddly enough also with Sean Connery.
      If you think the cast was impressive on the trailer, you should look it up online. They didn't even mention half of the stars. They're also a few relatively unknowns at the time that became stars.

    The description of the scale of the battle was a hyperbolic. No battle in WW2 can match the sheer brutality of the Battle of Stalingrad. What the Market Garden did have however was the most extraordinary feat of bravery in British Military History. A piece of action where Major Robert Caine turned the situation around from certain defeat and capture by the Germans to withdrawing to safety

    Great film, but I didn't like how they portrayed Gen. "Boy" Browning (Dirk Bogarde). They made him too narrowminded, opinionated, and overall too "gung ho" about Market Garden. He expressed reservations to Monty about the operation; the narrow road, the paratrooper jump in daylight, having to capture and hold seven bridges simultaneously. He coined the phrase "A Bridge Too Far" because Arnhem bridge was so far away from Nijmegen - about 12 miles between Nijmegen bridge and Arnhem bridge. He could not have seen that only one battalion (commanded by the able Col. John Frost) would actually make it to Arnhem Bridge. Browning was justly concerned about a lightly armed force precariously perched on the other side of a river deep in German-held territory.

      I was 19 when this came out and via my dad a big WW2 movie buff, so the trailer really flashes me back. You are soo right. Few people remember how things were back then. The Vietnam war movie, "Boys of Company C", had a really hard time being funded, when only a few years later Vietnam war flicks were the rage. In this and in "Boys of Company C", they injected allot of "anti war" theme into the script, lots of action, but lots of anti war as well. They said, "a good war movie, is an anti war movie". At the time, I saw this, I was actually very disappointed. The end was so depressing. Then again...I was 19.

      Oh yes the shelling from the 25 pounders was orgasmic. Finally we see dust in a war movie, and the explosions themselves, they are not fuel tank explosions like in movies today (like in Hacksaw Ridge). Movies tend to forget that high explosive shells are different than napalm.

  • @rogerkincaid931
    @rogerkincaid931 6 років тому +53

    What an impeccable cast. It's such a shame that the Academy Awards ignored the film, perhaps due to the sentiment over the depicted lost of the Allied Forces; they may have lost the battle, but they still won the war.

    • @Gina-bt7qk
      @Gina-bt7qk 6 років тому +9

      Considering who they've actually given awards to, I believe it would be disgraceful to have the "high honor" bestowed on that film. Good films don't need "awards" from some phony "academy," for crying out loud.

    Great movie with an all-star cast!
    I didn't recognize Colonel Frost as Anthony Hopkins who later played Hannibal Leckter in 'Silence of the Lambs' just as I didn't recognize Frenchie from 'The Sand Pebbles' who was played by Richard Attenborough. He played Bartlett 'Big X' in 'The Great Escape'. He seemed shorter and had gained some weight. Then again, he was older. Steve McQueen was the main character in that flick. This was another great movie. Many subplots in an insurrection (The Boxer Rebellion) setting not really as well-known like WWII. On that note, I recommend '55 Days at Peking' with Charlton Heston, David Niven, and Ava Gardner. It shows the involvement of foreign governments whose armies fight against the Chinese Boxers who want to remove all foreigners from China. Great cinematography-Battle scenes with many extras as there was no CGI at the time 😁
