Synopsis:
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 disaster beyond the Allies' darkest fears. Based on Cornelius Ryan's best-selling novel, A Bridge Too Far accurately recreates in stunning detail this controversial episode in military history. Director Richard Attenborough ( Gandhi , Cry Freedom ) and writer William Goldman ( Marathon Man , All the President's Men ) craft an epic both monumental in its scale and surprising in its subtlety. Featuring an unparalleled all-star cast—James Caan, Michael Caine, Sean Connery, Elliott Gould, Gene Hackman, Anthony Hopkins, Laurence Olivier, Ryan O'Neal and Robert Redford to name but a few—and indelible images of battle, like a sky mushroomed with falling paratroopers, A Bridge Too Far has been heralded as “the definitive World War II film” (Judith Crist, Saturday Review).
