Have you seen 'A Bridge Too Far? 🎬

In the reel, you can see a legendary scene from the famous 1977 film 'A Bridge Too Far'. This film is about Operation Market Garden, which started exactly 80 years ago today. The plan of the Allies was to cross the German border via the Netherlands so that the war could be ended in 1944. For this, all bridges across the Dutch rivers had to fall intact into allied hands. It would be a combined air and land operation of English, American, Canadian and Polish troops. The air operation was known under the codename Market and the land operation under the name Garden.

A Bridge Too Far is a historical war film that was directed by Richard Attenborough and was released in 1977. It stars a big ensemble cast including Sean Connery, Ryan O'Neal, Michael Caine, Paul Maxwell, Dirk Bogarde, Edward Fox, Gene Hackman, Anthony Hopkins, Sir Laurence Olivier, Robert Redford and many other renowned actors. The film is based on Operation Market Garden, an unsuccessful attempt by the Allied forces to seize control of key bridges in Nazi-occupied Holland, and is adapted from Cornelius Ryan's book of the same name.

General James M. Gavin, left, (RYAN O'NEAL) confers with Lt. Col. "Joe" Vandeleur (MICHAEL CAINE), commander of the Irish Guards tank unit, about the desperate plight of the British 1st Airborne soldiers in the Arnhem sector, isolated and vastly outnumbered by German forces on the ground in Joseph E. Levine's "A Bridge Too Far", a United Artists release.

The true story of the greatest battle of World War II and the basis of the 1977 film of the same name, directed by Richard Attenborough.

The Battle of Arnhem, one of the most dramatic battles of World War II, was as daring as it was ill-fated. It cost the Allies nearly twice as many casualties as D-Day.

This is the whole compelling story, told through the vast cast of characters involved. From Dutch civilians to British and American strategists, its scope and ambition is unparalleled, superbly recreating the terror and suspense, the heroism and tragedy of this epic operation.

'I know of no other work of literature of World War II as moving, as awesome and as accurate in its portrayal of human courage.' - General James A Gavin

‘A Bridge Too Far’ is available to watch and stream, download, and buy on demand at Amazon Prime, Apple TV, Amazon, and Google Play online.

In Venice last week I visited the square where ailing composer Gustav von Aschenbach (Dirk Bogarde) first sees the city being disinfected against the spead of cholera in Visconti's 'Death in Venice' (Morte a Venezia - 1971). This slow, beautiful film is for many an enchanting reflection on art, beauty, longing, and death. But as well as having a good attention span you need to be convinced of author Thomas Mann's premise that Aschenbach's infatuation with the teenage Tadzio makes him an appreciator of beauty and not a pervert. I can't say I was entirely convinced, but then the films powerful mixture of beauty and decay, symbolised by Aschenbach/Tadzio and by Venice in the grip of a cholera epidemic, is meant to make it ambiguous. For us visiting Venice in a crisp, sunny February its beauty was overwhelming - so much so that despite reminders of the city's difficult history (and headlines full of coronavirus) we felt that beauty must triumph and that life must be stronger than death. . . . . . . . . . #CampiellodeiCalegheri #veniceitaly #venice #deathinvenice #visconti #dirkbogarde #morteavenezia #luchinovisconti #aschenbach #thomasmann #cholera #coronavirus #tadzio #italianfilm #italianmovie #infatuation #cineaste #cinema #cinephile #cinephilecommunity #cinéaste #filmlocations #filmlocation #movielocation #movielocations (at Campiello Dei Calegheri) https://www.instagram.com/p/B8oU4NPFAYi/?igshid=1797oqkeoz8x7

The Black and Blue Lamp - Guy Slater (1988)

The Black and Blue Lamp - Guy Slater (1988)

Satirical and surreal play by Arthur Ellis, dealing with the manner in which the British police force has been represented on TV for four decades. In 1949 Tom Riley is arrested for the murder of PC George Dixon. As he awaits interrogation at the station he is mysteriously transported into an episode of The Filth - a 1988 police series where the hard men rule. This black comedy questions whether the police have changed or is it the way film and television present them.

Absolute madness this. Basically Life on Mars but actually good, great even. 

8.75/10
