Review of Where Eagles Dare (1968) by John P — 10 Feb 2008
One of the weirder casting ploys.
That actually works! Breathlessly.
Suspenseful WW2 actioner, based.
On the Alistair MacLean novel.
(last great one he ever did).
Burton looks like he's having fun for a change, stealing the.
Film from Eastwood at every turn. In fact, Burton is so brutally efficient as a assassin,.
You almost feel sorry for the three German spies trapped.
In the cable car with him. Exciting (if repetitious) Ron Goodwin score. Loved the "revelation" scene. Great snow flick.
