Slightly off-topic(ish) but I have to disagree that A Bridge Too Far was an "awesome" film.
Yes, it all looks very nice but as a piece of story-telling is an absolute bl00dy outrage.
My objection is that it deliberately make the British out to be completly incompetant idiots, but the American to be super-heroes. Hollywood seems to particularly like having a go at Monty for some reason - see Saving Private Ryan for more un-called for sniping.
I've always been a bit disgusted that Richard "luvvie" Attenborough sold-out to Hollywood in making this film, presumably for the sake of money.
Plus, of course, the Yanks won't go and see a film that doesn't have them as the super-hero saviours of all mankind.
No wonder so many Op. Market Garden survivors walked out of the screenings when the film was released.
