a5c7b9f00b Allied agents stage a daring raid on a castle where the Nazis are holding an American General prisoner… but that&#39;s not all that&#39;s really going on. Several months before D-Day, the British stage a daring rescue deep inside Germany. Led by British Major Jonathan Smith and including one American, Lt. Morris Schaffer, their mission is to rescue American Brig. Gen. George Carnaby whose airplane was shot down over Germany. Carnaby, one of the architects of the D-Day invasion, is being held in the Schloss Adler, the Eagle&#39;s Castle, built high on a promontory and accessible only by cable car. The team successfully parachutes into Germany but lose their radioman in the jump and then a second member of the team within a day. Taken prisoner by the Germans, Smith&#39;s true mission is revealed. This is one of those movies that you can watch over and again. Richard Burton is great and Clint Eastwood is excellent. Great action and cinematography with lot&#39;s of plot twists and turns and a crisp script. The movie never falters. The cable car scenes are terrific. Having Richard Burtonthe Superstar of a movie can only be helped to shine brighter by having Clint Eastwoodhis costar. This fine movie is very welldone and is very accurate in many ways with the period vehicles and wonderful German music played.<br/><br/>The scenery in the film is also very fantastic and makes you feelif you are there–along with the movie characters. I highly recommend watching this movie and recommend buying it on DVD when released. You will not be disappointed in itwellthe excellent music scorethe movies theme.
