Alistair MacLean's famous story
Starring Richard Burton as Major John Smith - Richard Burton tells Radio Times: "It was bloody cold, but I enjoyed meeting and working with Clint Eastwood and Yakima Canutt - one of the greatest stunt co-ordinators of all time" - Clint Eastwood as Lt. Morris Schaffer, Mary Ure as Mary Ellison, Michael Hordern as Vice-Admiral Rolland, Patrick Wymark as Col. Wyatt-Turner
Seven paratroopers, led by a British intelligence officer, are sent on a seemingly impossible mission. They must enter the almost impregnable Nazi stronghold 'Castle of the Eagles' - and rescue a high-ranking American officer. An already dangerous task is further threatened by a traitor in the group. This World War II adventure film proved one of the greatest box-office successes of all time, thanks to its ingenious script, spectacular special effects and exciting stunt work.
