#MGM #Compilation #WarFilms - Розваги
It' a genuine movie Battle of Britain 😍 I dont know how many times I have seen it love it so much!
It was a racist flop with an elderly cast.
You can't get anyone better to introduce your film than Edward Fox, he's always such a delight in whatever film he's in. Even in b-movies like Wild Geese 2 he's hilarious, or Never Say Never Again and he's very memorable in the great Shaka Zulu series
He portrayed Gen Brian Horricks in A Bridge Too Far.
13:52 - MCC tie!
@@Elitist20 True that!
Nice how the British pilot gave the French airman a ride to safety
I think you will find the pilot giving the lift was a New Zealander. Black shoulder flash is the give away.
Hawker Hurricane was a tough aircraft. Battle of Britain wasn't all about the Spitfire.
well said, it was rare to even see one
Great point, the Hurricane was by far the most numerous British fighter.
Hurricane did most of the work while spitfire got the glory.
Hurricanes handled the bombers, Spitfire handled the fighters.
Wrong Mae wests I Battle of Britain, 1960s type.
Some good pickes here. Thank you for compiling and posting this collection.
The air to air combat sequencies were shot over Ely in Cambridgeshire, spent the summer term at school watching the dog fights unfold overhead. Memorable ...
Americans refer to the generation that fought WWII as The Greatest Generation. Very apt.
I call todays generation the Whinge, Sook and Wuss Generation.
How so?
@@fifthbusiness1678I’m one of that generation and if you don’t know read your history.
@@georgemcbride7857 The Communist Generation.
@@georgemcbride7857
So you remember "A day late and a dollar short" & "Over paid & over here" then? ... That's probably why he asked.
Outstanding you put the bridge at Remagen on the list Maybe? my favorite .
IDK that film of the aproaching Americans looks speed up. If so I can't see giving the filmmakers good marks for the deception.
Ron Goodwin's Luftwaffe Song is just unforgettable.
Ron Goodwin was a great film composer.
Why on earth did the costuming department for Force 10 from Navarone, never measure Robert Shaw's head? He looks to have a child's hat on his head.
Never before seen. What a thought provoking scene. Thanks.
*It's been longer since this film came out to now than it was since the time period it represented and when the film came out*
Flood the cowl…plenty of it!
Cheers Dan
Better than some dribble out now.gen z's should watch this film, no cgi or A.I. here folks
Absolutely. I grew up with these older movies with my Dad. For many 1977 was Star Wars. For me it was A Bridge to far.
Amazing. Every generation says this.
@@zzygyy Or Close Encounters of the Third Kind (November 1977). That was more thought-provoking to me than Star Wars.
@@zoso73 If that's what you want. I don't expect every meal I have to be 5 star, sometimes I just want a comfort food plate of biscuits and gravy. Same with movies.
Of course I now have to go and watch them in full!
I recommend the special edition DVD.
The audio commentary tells you what REALLY happened when Goering's train pulled out of the station.
There were a few others that could have made the cut - The Longest Day; Tora! Tora! Tora! and Dunkirk all come to mind as does Midway (1976).
In "Beach Red", I learned there were at least two Filipino actors who appeared in the film. In the opening scene, I noticed a familiar face among those who played American soldiers who are waiting for action. The face belongs to Filipino actor Ed Finlan.
Susannah York was stunning back in the day and got many acting roles because of this
Battle of Britain was a great movie!
It was a racist flop.
Im so glad Dvd dont get ruined like video tape.
trully amazing movie !!! have goosebums any time I watch it !!!
Harrison Ford at 16:25 , one year after Star Wars. Apparently, he had no confidence in that genre.
He was just a young actor making his rounds.😊
02:17. Low pass !
Outstanding film...
Give me spitfire or give me Blücher
Whiiinnnny!
WOW!!! NO CGI. Real Spitfires! Real M1 Tanks! (Laugh track: "I know this is bad timing...
No M1 tanks back then. M24s in the movie.
社会人になってレンタルビデオ屋で初めて借りたVHSテープです😊OP&EDはいい🆗
I am hoping to see a part two of these scenes.
Adolf Galland was flying one of the Messerschmitts in the opening.
I didn't know that!
Navy Seal, I'm pretty sure that lady walking up the isle plays the bridegroom's gf in Michael Mann's Heat too.
I love the Hurricanes!!!
So many possibilities. A Bridge too Far with the Germans retreating, Midway (the original) - all setting the scene for the story
CHRIST Listen To THE DEISEL Whistle !!! of The I09s COMMING In !!!IVE HEARD That UP 60ft OVER My HEAD !!!at EASTLEIGH Garage ???? Being Chased BY a HUREICANE !!!😔😂In 2003. I Think It Was Hedgehoping ????THEY MUST Have GOT A ROLLICKNG FOR That ?????😂WHAT A SOUND DAIMLER BENZ -THEN THAT R.R.Merlin. a Limey g
With these opening, we can cut into one film and showing on screen
BATTLEオブBritain·レマーゲン鉄橋·NAVYSEALs·ナバロンの要塞·深く静かに潜行せよ
Is that Harrison Ford at 15:27?
yes
His haircut is better than his other WW2 film!
Hilarious clip from Run Silent Run Deep - where they're actively pinging sonar at periscope depth. 😏
Also, they were pinging about five times too fast for their target's range. Also, they were visually ranging so they 🙄didn't need the sonar.
and when they were hit by the depth charges, they came up and clung to wooden pallets. There arent wooden pallets on submarines, especially not WWII subs
@@Ty_-ht1mp I am pretty sure both German and US subs had mostly slotted wooden decks.
@@janburda6749 interesting. I was not aware of that. Wooden pallets makes more sense now. Thank you for the information
Its a great move and yes the opening is very special
But it tapered out at the end, as if they run out of script or money
I was talking about the Battle of Britain
I don't understand the first scene at all. Who's shooting at who??
It's the start of the film "The Battle of Britain", ironically starting with the closing stages of the Battle of France in 1940. France has just fallen, the Royal Air Force is evacuating France as the British realise they will require all their remaining fighter planes when they intend to fight on alone and defeat the Germans against all odds.
As the RAF are evacuating, the Luftwaffe strafe their remaining planes which are already out of action. Watch the film, it depicts one of the 3 or 4 crucial battles of WW2.
@@hansgruber788 thank you
The buchon coming in a 5m max 🤓
Did they actually destroy real WW2 Spitfires for these scenes?
Be serious...
@@jeffsmith2022 I am. They sure looked real.
Those were Hurricanes, not Spitfires. And those were all mock-ups, models if you will. @@tibzig1
@@tibzig1that's the entire point of props in films.
@@rasqual78 Son, I simply asked a question. The decent answer would have been, "No they were props." Anything else you Westerners would like to teach me?
Now people complain about how bad their country is. How sad
Now some of them would say when aren't there some trannies in the army? Yes, I have heard that.
Im sorry but I cant classify that Beach Red opening Iconic.
It was a bit boring
It was a movie came a good movie
What??????
A good movie but simply ruined by teaming up the estimable Christopher Plummer with the wooden acting of Susannah York , she was hopelessly stilted , just awful.
Great opening scene for Battle of Britain
NOW AMAZON MGM STUDIOS - DONT YOU THINK THE U.K. DESERVES A 4K CINEMA RESTORATION OF THIS FILM?
THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF US ON THE BATTLE OF BRITAIN FILM FACEBOOK SITE WHO WANT THIS TO HAPPEN.
PUT IT BACK INTO THE CINEMAS LIKE THEY DID WITH “THE GREAT ESCAPE” A FEW YEARS AGO.
THIS FILM SHOULD BE SEEN ONCE AGAIN ON THE BIG SCREEN IN ALL ITS GLORY
C'est la Royal air force qui Decamp en vitesse en Ukraine face au Russes
Yawn. Allah Akbar.
this is not the opening scene for a great movie.
opening scenes from several movies
Probably one of the worse videos i have ever seen.
So glad that racist film "Battle of Britain" flopped so badly.
Worst compilation ever. Why did you bother.
Thanks for these.
Ahhh the Spitfire, for me...still the best looking and sounding fighter plane in the history of aeronautics, beautiful machine, absolutely beautiful.
What spitfire?
@@Katy_Jones Spitfires are featured in The Battle of Britain movie, I didn't say they were in the clip.
@@Supermans-DrunkPillock...
pointless
All the more reason i do not buy a German or Japanese vehicle.
POINTLESS
The church scene waaaaaas soooo lame. Ain't nobody that short fuzed.
Navy Seals? Really? 😂😅😊
