What's the best way to take a bridge?

Epic and monumental war movie about the allies failed attempt (in World War 2) to break through German lines in occupied Holland and take several bridges (operationally known as Market Garden).
Unfairly rounded on by critics on release, ABTF is without a doubt an amazing film starring a relative who's who of American and British talent. Many memorable and outstanding scenes are immaculately acted out in this historically accurate movie.
A considerably mammoth effort by director Richard Attenborough and his efforts have created a stimulatingly magnificent film.
