Where Eagles Soar

Although it is preposterous and far fetched to the extreme, Where Eagles Dare is also one of the most entertaining war movies ever.
Jam packed with Nazis, explosions, double crosses, triple crosses, fights atop cable cars and even more explosions, this is a move rich in escapism and unlimited energy.
The casting gods were also working overtime in teaming up Richard Burton and Clint Eastwood and obtaining a splendid international ensemble as supporting players.
An extremely well crafted boys own adventure that has become an undisputed classic genre film.
