An epic film that "Re-creates in stunning
detail one of the most disastrous battles of World War II"(The Hollywood
Reporter), A Bridge Too Far is a spectacular war picture. Painstakingly
recreated on actual battlefield locations and boasting a remarkable cast that
includes Sean Connery, Anthony Hopkins, Sir Laurence Olivier and Robert Redford,
A Bridge Too Far accurately recaptures the monumental scope, excitement and
danger behind one of the biggest military gambles in history.
In September 1944, flush with success after
the Normandy Invasion, the Allies confidently launched Operation Market Garden,
a wild scheme intended to put an early end to the fighting by invading Germany
and smashing the Reich's war plants. But a combination of battlefield politics,
faulty intelligence, bad luck and even worse weather led to the disaster beyond
the Allies' darkest fear.
