Title: Clint and Richard at their action-packed best....
Review: Not only do their performances standout in this war film, but the music enhances the action scenes in a way that few film scores do, this flick is worth it for the soundtrack alone.Richard Burton leads a team of British commandos and one American Ranger, Clint Eastwood, high into the Alps to rescue an American General just days before D-Day. As the plot twists and turns, it reveals the excellent writing and storytelling that Alistair MacLean lends to every book he's written. Richard Burton's character has more facets than a well-cut diamond and Clint Eastwood's role show how an actor can do more with less. The scenery, filmed onsite in Alpine castle, is amazing and the supporting cast was well selected for this movie. While this title never seems to appear on either Burton's or Eastwood's list of career highlights, you will find this WWII film to be an unsung gem.
