One of the GOAT war movies is free on Youtube: A Bridge Too Far

Another good Michael Caine war flick, “The Eagle has Landed,” is also on YouTube. It also has Larry Hagman playing an idiot Colonel.

I think “Battle of Britain” is on there, too.

My friend’s father was a consultant on that movie, particularly for the Waal River crossing. He was played by John Ratzenberger (Cliff from Cheers) in the movie I also saw him last week watching a documentary about the Battle of the Bulge, where he singlehandedly tookout a Panzer tank with a sticky bomb. He gave commentary in a couple segments. He was also in Operation Market Garden. Amazing man - the most decorated officer of the 82nd Airborne. Died in 2020 at age 103. He had such an amazing presence even at that age - when he spoke, you knew you were in the presence of greatness. I first watched A Bridge Too Far after reading his book.
