"Fast and furious...The whoppingest thriller of them all!" - NY NEWS Richard Burton and Clint Eastwood are terrific together as the ultimate deadly duo in Where Eagles Dare - one of the most tense and rousing World War II adventures ever made. Alistair (Guns of Navarone) Maclean surpassed even his own exciting scripts with this magnificently paced suspense tale. The film opens with these two superstars parachutting into Bavarian Alps behind enemy lines, and from there on the action is non-stop, completely engrossing... and machine-gun fast! The two commandos have been assigned to rescue an American General from the "Eagle's Nest" - an impregnable Nazi fortress which can be reached only by cable car. Only three things block their chances for success-getting up, getting down, and getting away. It's a suicide mission, but with a little help from two lovely co-adventures (Mary Ure and Ingrid Pitt), Burton and Eastwood are ready to take on the whole Germany Army! With it's dizzying Alpine fight sequences and limitless twists and turns, Where Eagles Dare is an explosive , high-flying film! "Savage and sardonic...engrossing entertainment."
