A bridge too far is essential viewing for those who love war films, it is intelligent, well written and well acted.Arnhem was a disaster for the allies, though Montgomery regarded it as a limited success, however the dignity of the soldiers fighting for their cause shines through.The Germans are shown as human beings and not cardboard cut outs.The film contains several great scenes the ones that stand out to me are the landing all the parachutes,the river crossing, the dropping of supplies, the house taken over as a hospital and the wounded soldiers singing abide with me.The stars all perform very well with Connery and Hopkins outstanding.The soundtrack is excellent, with a tune you can whistle to.The special edition of the DVD is excellent with some great extras, i recommend this film to everyone interested in world war 2
