"A Bridge Too Far". Intelligent and masterful direction.
A movie that only gets better with each viewing.
With CGI not having been invented yet, Attenborough had to resort
to assembling as many C-47's and thousands of extras to parachute out of them
as he could get his hands on.
The result of having to use real planes and real people jumping out of them
is visually stunning, both in its sense of scale and grandeur
and in conveying the sense of trepidation and fear one might have had
if you had been one of those guys making the jump.
