one of the best action movies ever made , one of my favorites , needless to say they dont make em like this anymore. no cgi needed

The only war movie I can endlessly rewatch! Gorgeous score, too.

It's the first war movie I saw when I was a kid. I've seen the movie so many times that I almost knew the dialogues by heart. Probably the most underrated war movie in history. A good story, and very well told. What can you say about the scenes on the cable car and the escape on that awesome red bus with snowplow?

The best movie ever made. Love it to bits.

"Broadsword calling Danny Boy."

I was 19 years old at the time and spent a week as an extra during filming inwerfen (Austria).ich war damals 19 jahre alt und war eine woche lang bei den dreharbeiten in werfen (austria) als statist dabei .

Prob one of the finest war films I've seen superb actors added bonus Mary Ure n Ingrid Pitt absolute gorgeous women in their prime

One of my favourite war movies the opening is truly epic i get chills everytime when the drums kick in

I remember when i was young my dad saying you will enjoy this, and by gosh did i enjoy it. Its stood the test of time and is still very highly regarded today as one of the best if not the best war movies ever made, awesome cast, incredible storyline which all adds up. The start of the film when that music kicks in with a sprawling shot of what wee believe is the bavarian alps, hits you right out the gate and does not stop. I lost count of how many germans clint eastwoods character does away with, but what a cast, super deep with talent, including the german actors aswel. So glad it got made and there was no crap like it has to be 2hours. Its as long as it takes to go from start to finish of the mission to find out who the german spies contacts were in britain. Just brilliant. I did not know elizibeth taylor was thare during filming, amazing. A masterpiece. Real locations,

The best war movie ever, I never tire of it, I must have watched it 60 or 70 times !!

A masterpiece unmatched in 56 years

Major John Smith: You're late. Mary Ellison: One day, I won't come at all. RIP Mary Ure. (1933-1975)

This film is always one if my favorites. My grandfather introduced me to alot of Clint Eastwood movies. This is one we always watch together.

I love it very much because of the actors Clint Eastwood and Richard Burton, the location with the snow and the fortress, and also the scenario which is not the one we expected at the beginning of the movie.

From the actors, music, story, and overall feel of the movie, it's 100% my favorite movie of all time. Reminds me of my grandpa and father. What id give to have that first experience again!

Locations are one of the secrets of this movie (Hohenwerfen Castle). The sequences with the fight on top of the cable car are wonderful.

A true classic. In that it has an incredible story line. Amazing cast that work so well together. An incredible location that involved so much hard work to pull off many of the scenes. Unlike the dross we get today that is primarily shot with a green screen. And then there is the film score by Ron Goodwin. What a majestic intro. Nothing comes close. A true classic.

"Broadsword calling Danny boy". Eastwood, Burton, 2 lovely ladies, plenty of action and that theme! What is there not to live about this film?

I can´t thank you enoungh for this. Having seen the movie more than 50 times this is fantastic.

Awesome. Thanks for uploading this gem.

Amazing the best war movie and One of the best movies all the times.

I’m so glad I found this, this is very rare. Love this great WW2 movie!

One of my favorite movies and the Iron Maiden song of the same name which had hints of the soundtrack in it is one of my favorite songs

The best action fim ever...... it has everything!!! Broadsword calling Danny Boy...... ICONIC!!!!

The one film I can watch time after time and not get fed up with it. Has to be the best film for me👍

I’ve just bought the book.. Seen the movie so many times on TCM. One of my fav war movies

One of my fav movies.Loved this.Caughr a glimpse of Liz Taylor and Robert Shaw (married to Mary Ure) was also on set at times.

"An impossible film about an impossible mission." - My readings tell me that is why Brian G. Hutton wanted to make it. Liked.

Classic. Perfect movie. The BEST!

Hello from Sept 2023. Thank you for posting. 👏👏👏

Watched a hundred times

Brilliant--many thanks.

For me one of the greatest adventure movies. yes a bit of artistic license but no matter a great story and yeah at the end of the mission I figure Clint Eastwood makes it with the other lady Ingrid Pitt. A perfect ending for me. The don't make adventure movies like this anymore, great dramatic acting from all Actors including of course the great Richard Burton.

Thanks for sharing this video :D

Sharp intake of breath when Ingrid Pitt said that Richard Burton was English.

Classic film!

love the women in this film :) when women looked like women

🏆🏆🏆👍🇺🇲🙏 Thank you for sharing

Very interesting, I just saw this movie on channel 32.1 in Chicago via Xfinity. I had it on my DVR for a while.

Major Bernard Himmler ...I think the name means something to you. I love that line from Burton. I saw this when I was 8 & loved it then over 40 years later it's still great to watch. Clint is so cool when he says Smith & Burton drops down.

I’ll always love it for many reasons one being my dad was bought up southern Austria, So when I saw this film when it came out , I was ten ,and he was in ww2 ,so it’s stuck in me to this day, I’ve been the alps skiing but not this castle ,I sure hope I get go and in the snow,has to be!

Best war movie ever made ever

Pretty COOL 🙂

Great movie!

RESPECT

"There is Richard Burton of course, who is English." Welsh people everywhere get annoyed.

beautiful movie iwatched it more than 6 times! how they filmed cable car fight? it so real with technology that days

Salzburg area is the most beautiful place on earth. I visited there two years ago.

A great movie. I saw it with my mum and dad in Glasgow when I was a wee boy and it made quite an impression. I remember making my own trip-wire "explosives" out of string, tape and cardboard tubes from toilet rolls.

Regarding the narrator. This is when English speakers; and American speakers aligned. Since the 1970s, it's changed into something unrecognisably dissimilar;.timeously. As for Burton, Ingrid Pitt got that wrong. He was from Wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 👉 🇬🇧 In my experience, educated Welsh people, with their musical clarity, speak the best English Don't be fooled by my name, it's 200 yesrs historically. I'm from Kensington and Chelsea, in London; originally. Have taught English in 32 countries. Best wishes; and thanks for this interesting piece of film history. 🇬🇧 🤝 🇩🇪

Indiana Jones-type action long before Indy was thought of. I remember happening on this movie on late-night television around the early 70s and wondering what the name of it was.

Ingrid Pitt (Ingoushka Petrov) was Polish-British, born of Jewish parents who spent time as a child in a German concentration camp. She married an American GI and moved to the US - then when the marriage broke up, returned to Europe. Among other parts, she had several roles in Doctor Who - but became a cult name for her roles in Hammer Horror films - her popularity with horror film buffs had her in demand for guest appearances at horror conventions and film festivals. She was also a writer - novels, an autobiography, as well as columns and articles for magazines and periodicals. Not German..

"That is right! Now, tell him he's a traitor!"

To make a movie is boring but put together in the editing room creates movie magic.

Let's talk about Düsseldorf!

Ingrid 😍😍.

Great Film, my Father worked in costume and made the uniforms for this film. The German Reversible Snow Jackets were very difficult to make

It's like the Only War Movie Other than Kelly's Heroes that I, Guess. I'll be Watching till I, Dont Have the Ability too..Lol

I was really liking Ingrid Pitt - but at 4:49 she called Burton and Mary Ure English! lol

Ingrid Pitt was so fine.

If ya like this Film and like to read Fiction, read the Jack Higgins Collection.

All the Welsh people in this comment section are losing their minds over the fact that someone called Richard Burton English

Can someone tell me the beginning song with the harp in this video

Werfen is hardly at the top of the Austrian alps. They had to pick camera angles to make it seem higher than it actually is.

The greatest war film ever!! Me and my son visit the grave of patrick wymark twice a year to lay flowers 🙏

Burton is Welsh my dear.

Americans have icy roads, snow over ice can walk

I like it but the setup before they get into the castle is just way way too long.....should have moved that along much faster .

Danny boy here OVER!!. Broadsword The giblets are in the turkey REPEAT the giblets are in the turkey OVER

💛💛💚💚💚💚💚💚💜💜💜💜🤎🤎🤎🤎💖💖🤎🤎💞💞💞💞💞💞💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓❣❣🧡🧡🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍

Ingrid Pitt though mmmm 😜👅

Wow, Mrs Burton. The one and only Elizabeth Taylor was on set. 07:35

4:01 Ingrid Pitt - German?? 4:48 Richard Burton - English??

I love this movie. This "making of "has to be the worst I have seen. The shots are all over the place and changing rapidly.

Ooh, not sure Mr Burton would have appreciated being called english but an easy mistake to make.

Although comparatively tame, compared to 'WED', it's a fairly good WWII movie.

Richard Burton English?! Poor misinformed German… He was Welsh, buried in Switzerland (where he lived a lot), having grown fat on American money (which he wanted to keep).

One of my favorite movies, Thank you

My all time favorite movie ... just watched it again for the 100th time ...

One of my favourite films.

I just watched this today for the first time which seems criminal considering I'm 44 years old. Loved it, easily made my top 10 list and as a huge fan of Castle of Wolfenstien games I can see the inspiration, well I think it must have been considering the imagery and action. Greatness

i was near there in January a few years ago & have some photos put to music (on you tube) called 'wherejdares2'

Mary Ure born in Glasgeee

Mary committed suicide. Sad.

Honestly "Richard Burton, who is English" and "Mary Ure, who is English"!! Welsh and Scottish, you would think you would know these simple things working with people on a movie.
