A Bridge Too Far

1977, Movie, 2h 55min

The story of Operation Market Garden—a failed attempt by the allies in the latter stages of WWII to end the war quickly by securing three bridges in Holland allowing access over the Rhine into Germany. A combination of poor allied intelligence and the presence of two crack German panzer divisions meant that the final part of this operation (the bridge in Arnhem over the Rhine) was doomed to failure.

The interminable stalemate of frontline combat is powerfully rendered: the strafed streets, the lack of supplies, the drift to inevitable surrender.

...en välgjord krigsfilm som har en välförtjänt plats bland klassikerna i genren. Det är tre timmar som inte på något sätt känns för långt.

What is A Bridge Too Far about? Toggle content

A Bridge Too Far tells the story of Operation Market Garden, a failed attempt by the Allies in World War II to end the war quickly by securing three bridges in Holland, allowing access over the Rhine into Germany. The operation involved 35,000 men being flown 300 miles from England and dropped behind enemy lines in the Netherlands. Two divisions of US paratroopers were responsible for securing the road and bridges as far as Nijmegen, while a British division, led by Major-General Roy Urquhart, was to land near Arnhem and hold both sides of the bridge, backed by a brigade of Polish paratroopers. However, the operation was doomed to failure due to poor intelligence, the presence of two crack German panzer divisions, and unfavorable weather conditions. The film features an all-star cast, including Dirk Bogarde, James Caan, Michael Caine, and Sean Connery, and was directed by Richard Attenborough.
