Major, right now you got me about as confused as I ever hope to be. Directed by Brian G. Hutton and adapted to the screen from his own novel by Alistair MacLean, Where Eagles Dare stars Richard Burton and Clint Eastwood. Music is scored by Ron Goodwin and cinematography is by Arthur Ibbetson. A small group of allied agents are sent on a mission to rescue a Allied General from a Nazi castle stronghold. But there is more than what meets the eye here... Boys own men on a mission in grandio…

_**One of the greatest action/adventure films ever made**_ RELEASED IN 1968 and directed by Brian G.

Alistair Maclean wrote the scr…

The story is very interesting, Clint Eastwood looks very good on Nazi Uniform and kick 4ss so much 4ss it kind of ruins the almost perfect story about counter spies double agents, double cross mumbo jumbo If they wanted to end WWII they should have sent Clint Eastwood and Richard Burton dressed as SS officers.

When an American general's plane is forced down over Nazi Germany, it falls to "Smith" (Richard Burton) to lead a crack team into the depths of the Wehrmacht to get him out before a dose of scopalamine elicits the truth about the plans for an allied invasion of Europe. No sooner do they land, though, when things start to go wrong. With one of their number not even surviving the parachute drop into the snowy forest, "Smith" finds himself relying more heavily on American Ranger "Schaffer" (Clint E…
