A Bridge Too Far is a 1977 epic war film directed by Richard Attenborough.
The film tells the story of the failure of Operation Market Garden during World War II.
The Allied attempted to break through German lines and seize several bridges, including the road bridge over the Lower Rhine at Arnhem, in the occupied Netherlands.
The name for the film comes from an unconfirmed comment made by British Lieutenant-General Frederick Browning, who told Field Marshal Bernard Montgomery, the operation's architect, before the operation, "I think we may be going a bridge too far".
Starring: Dirk Bogarde, James Caan, Michael Caine, Sean Connery, Edward Fox, Elliot Gould, Anthony Hopkins, Gene Hackman, Hardy Krüger, Laurence Olivier, Robert Redford, and Maximilian Schell.
