It's hard to remember now,

2

but Europe was Iike this in 1944.

3
00:00:51,426 --> 00:00:55,512
The Second World War was in its fifth year
and stiII going HitIer's way.

4
00:00:56,765 --> 00:00:59,266
German troops controlled most of Europe.

5
00:01:00,643 --> 00:01:03,145
D-day changed aII that.

6
00:01:05,690 --> 00:01:09,401
D-day, June 6th, 1944.

7
00:01:09,486 --> 00:01:10,778
When the allied forces,

8
00:01:10,862 --> 00:01:13,322
under their commander,
General Eisenhower,

9
00:01:13,490 --> 00:01:16,158
landed on the northern coast of France.

10
00:01:16,993 --> 00:01:19,995
By July, they were able
to begin their own offensive.

11
00:01:20,163 --> 00:01:22,998
By August, Paris was liberated.

12
00:01:25,293 --> 00:01:27,628
Everywhere the Germans retreated.

13
00:01:29,422 --> 00:01:32,341
But with the allied victories
came problems.

14
00:01:32,634 --> 00:01:35,344
Supplies still had to be
driven from Normandy,

15
00:01:35,428 --> 00:01:37,179

16
00:01:37,305 --> 00:01:39,473
and became dangerously short.

17
00:01:39,808 --> 00:01:42,309
The allied advance began
to come to a halt.

18
00:01:44,854 --> 00:01:47,856
Another problem facing
Eisenhower was this.

19
00:01:48,108 --> 00:01:50,317
His two most famous generals,

20
00:01:50,527 --> 00:01:53,821
Patton, who was in the south,
and Montgomery in the north,

21
00:01:54,030 --> 00:01:56,198
disliked each other intensely.

22
00:01:56,783 --> 00:02:00,494
Their long-standing rivalry
had never been more fierce.

23
00:02:01,079 --> 00:02:04,540
There simply were not enough
supplies for both armies.

24
00:02:04,791 --> 00:02:07,876
Each wanted to be the one
to defeat the Germans.

25
00:02:08,086 --> 00:02:10,796
Each wanted to beat the other to Berlin.

26

In September 1944,

27
00:02:14,008 --> 00:02:17,136
Montgomery devised
a new and spectacular plan

28

29

Eisenhower,
under great pressure from his superiors,

30
00:02:23,685 --> 00:02:25,811

31
00:02:25,895 --> 00:02:29,231

became a reality.

181
00:15:34,892 --> 00:15:36,643
-l'll be in touch.
-That'll be fine.

182
00:15:38,103 --> 00:15:39,604
General, be safe.

183
00:15:41,649 --> 00:15:42,982
HARRY: Why the emergency meeting?

184
00:15:43,067 --> 00:15:45,568
Just keeping me abreast
of the little changes.

185
00:15:45,653 --> 00:15:47,111
How big are the little changes?

186
00:15:47,196 --> 00:15:50,406
l'll answer with typical
British understatement. Gigantic.

187
00:15:50,532 --> 00:15:52,617
For example, they can't
get us all in at once.

188
00:15:52,701 --> 00:15:55,286
Too many men, too much equipment,
not enough planes.

189
00:15:55,371 --> 00:15:57,789
lt's going to take
three days to get the men into Arnhem,

190
00:15:57,873 --> 00:15:59,499
Poles and the British.

191
00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:01,125
How about us?

192
00:16:01,210 --> 00:16:04,128
We'll be all right. Aside from the fact
that we're parachuting in daylight,

193
00:16:04,213 --> 00:16:06,047
we have nothing to worry about.

194
00:16:06,131 --> 00:16:09,550
Daylight? Has it ever been tried before?

195
00:16:10,302 --> 00:16:11,636
Not in a major drop.

196
00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:13,471
You think there might be
a reason for that?

197
00:16:13,555 --> 00:16:14,889
Let's hope not.

198
00:16:15,182 --> 00:16:16,307
What do you think?

199
00:16:16,392 --> 00:16:19,686
lt'll be all right. lt's a no-moon period
anyway. We have to go in daylight.

200
00:16:19,770 --> 00:16:22,522
lt doesn't matter.
Just so they get us over the target area.

201
00:16:22,606 --> 00:16:25,274
Half a mile away,
three quarters of a mile, l'll settle for that.

202
00:16:25,359 --> 00:16:27,527
l don't want to hear anything else.

203
00:16:28,028 --> 00:16:29,404
ls there anything else?

204
00:16:29,488 --> 00:16:31,739
Well, you're my Dutch adviser, Harry.

205
00:16:31,824 --> 00:16:33,700
l forgot to tell you something?

206
00:16:33,784 --> 00:16:36,786
Only that the Germans first tried to take
Nijmegen Bridge themselves

207
00:16:36,870 --> 00:16:39,664
back in 1 940 and got slaughtered.

208
00:16:44,253 --> 00:16:45,294
(SENTRY lN DUTCH)

209
00:16:45,379 --> 00:16:50,758
Go back!

210
00:16:52,886 --> 00:16:54,345
Do as l say!

211
00:16:54,430 --> 00:16:58,307
But my friend lives down the road.

212
00:16:58,976 --> 00:17:02,270
lt's my birthday
and she has a present for me.

213
00:17:03,772 --> 00:17:04,897
Please let me through.

214
00:17:13,115 --> 00:17:15,199
All right. Be quick.

215
00:17:26,795 --> 00:17:28,129
Are your sure about the colors?

216
00:17:28,213 --> 00:17:30,757
l'm sure, Father.
Believe me.

217
00:17:34,011 --> 00:17:35,178
Model?

218
00:17:36,597 --> 00:17:39,557
A field marshal in Arnhem? Why?

219
00:17:40,768 --> 00:17:42,977
The British will have an explanation.

220
00:17:43,062 --> 00:17:44,979
Did you pass on
the message about the tanks?

221
00:17:45,064 --> 00:17:48,024
Of course. But Model is
something more important.

222
00:17:49,610 --> 00:17:51,986
You're a good boy
and a wonderful spy.

223
00:17:52,071 --> 00:17:54,363
Now go and help
your mother with supper.

224
00:17:59,161 --> 00:18:00,203
Sir?

225
00:18:00,913 --> 00:18:02,121
Yes, Fuller?

226
00:18:02,247 --> 00:18:04,457
-We've got some information on tanks, sir.
-What?

227
00:18:04,541 --> 00:18:06,751
Dutch underground reports
from the Arnhem area.

228
00:18:06,835 --> 00:18:08,252
Established their strength?

229
00:18:08,337 --> 00:18:11,130
-No, sir, but l've got some men in...
-Have they been identified?

230
00:18:11,215 --> 00:18:12,256
Not by our intelligence.

231
00:18:12,341 --> 00:18:14,717
So it's the same rumors as before, right?

232
00:18:14,802 --> 00:18:16,928
-l believe these rumors, sir.
-Why?

233
00:18:17,513 --> 00:18:19,972
The general consensus
of opinion is that our opposition

234
00:18:20,057 --> 00:18:22,767
will consist entirely
of Hitler Youth or old men on bicycles.

235
00:18:22,851 --> 00:18:24,560
l don't really know why, sir.

236
00:18:24,645 --> 00:18:27,313
Perhaps because no one
in intelligence does.

237
00:18:27,397 --> 00:18:31,109
l just want to be sure
our airborne carpet consists of live troops,

238
00:18:31,193 --> 00:18:32,568
not dead ones.

239
00:18:33,362 --> 00:18:36,489
l know everybody thinks
l'm overanxious, sir,

240
00:18:37,032 --> 00:18:38,282
but l would like to order another

241
00:18:38,367 --> 00:18:40,243
low-level reconnaissance of the area.

242
00:18:40,327 --> 00:18:43,121
(STAMMERlNG)
lf that's all right with you, sir.

243
00:18:45,082 --> 00:18:46,332
Very well.

244
00:18:47,417 --> 00:18:49,127
-All right, Wilson.
-Sir.

245
00:18:49,211 --> 00:18:50,294
Very well.

246
00:18:50,712 --> 00:18:53,381
-Oh, Fuller. Fuller.
-Yeah. Sir?

247
00:18:53,882 --> 00:18:57,176
l wouldn't be too concerned about
what people think of you.

248
00:18:57,761 --> 00:19:00,638
You happen to be somewhat
brighter than most of us.

249
00:19:01,557 --> 00:19:03,266
Tends to make us nervous.

250
00:19:14,820 --> 00:19:18,197
Naturally we'll do our utmost
to meet your tactical requirements, sir,

251
00:19:18,282 --> 00:19:20,199
but please keep in mind

252
00:19:20,284 --> 00:19:23,244
the one factor which is
crippling all our plans.

253
00:19:23,620 --> 00:19:25,538
lt may seem improbable to you,

254
00:19:25,622 --> 00:19:28,749
but we are desperately short
of transport aircraft.

255
00:19:28,876 --> 00:19:30,084
l am aware of that.

256
00:19:30,169 --> 00:19:32,170
ln fact, l'm surprised
that nobody mentioned it to Monty

257
00:19:32,254 --> 00:19:34,380
when he dreamed up this operation.

258
00:19:34,756 --> 00:19:37,717
l need drop zones
as close as possible to the bridge.

259
00:19:37,843 --> 00:19:39,844
Now clearly this area's no use at all.

260
00:19:39,928 --> 00:19:42,805
Can't have my chaps
landing on the top of chimneys, but...

261
00:19:42,890 --> 00:19:44,765
Now this looks inviting here.

262
00:19:44,933 --> 00:19:47,351
-ROY: What's the terrain like?
-Sorry, sir.

263
00:19:47,436 --> 00:19:51,230
All our reports indicate that this
terrain here is too soft for glider landings.

264
00:19:51,315 --> 00:19:53,024
You see the nose digs in
first on touchdown,

265
00:19:53,108 --> 00:19:54,358
the whole thing goes ass over tip.

266
00:19:54,443 --> 00:19:55,818
Total write-off.

267
00:19:56,403 --> 00:19:57,486
All right.

268
00:19:58,155 --> 00:20:00,323
-What about there?
-No. l'm afraid not, sir.

269
00:20:00,407 --> 00:20:03,451
You see, after the drop,
when we bank for our return,

270
00:20:03,577 --> 00:20:06,537
we run into a whole lot
of flak and rubbish from this Jerry air field

271
00:20:06,622 --> 00:20:08,206
up here at Deelen.

272
00:20:08,457 --> 00:20:11,417
Presumably you're intending
to let us land somewhere.

273
00:20:12,961 --> 00:20:14,712
Oh, yes, hopefully, sir,

274
00:20:14,963 --> 00:20:16,547
but, as l was saying,

275
00:20:17,090 --> 00:20:19,717
we cannot afford to lose a single aircraft.

276
00:20:19,801 --> 00:20:21,302
That is the problem.

277
00:20:21,678 --> 00:20:24,889
My problem is
l don't just need drop zones.

278
00:20:25,474 --> 00:20:27,975
l need drop zones l can hold and defend.

279
00:20:28,727 --> 00:20:31,562
The rest of my division
arrives with the second drop

280
00:20:31,647 --> 00:20:34,065
and General Sosabowski's
Polish brigade with the third.

281
00:20:34,149 --> 00:20:35,441
l understand, sir.

282
00:20:35,525 --> 00:20:37,902
But we really think
we found the right place.

283
00:20:37,986 --> 00:20:41,072
lt's large enough
for your needs, it's flat and firm,

284
00:20:41,490 --> 00:20:43,199
and also easily defended.

285
00:20:43,617 --> 00:20:44,659
Well, where the hell is it?

286
00:20:44,743 --> 00:20:47,536
Well, it's not actually
on this photograph, but,

287
00:20:47,871 --> 00:20:49,872
it should be... Excuse me, sir.

288
00:20:50,082 --> 00:20:53,251
lt would be, about here, l think.

289
00:20:56,004 --> 00:20:58,130
That could be 1 0 miles from the bridge.

290
00:20:58,215 --> 00:20:59,632
No, just under eight, actually, sir.

291
00:20:59,716 --> 00:21:01,968
lf you'd like to have a look at this.

292
00:21:04,096 --> 00:21:07,348
You see, the terrain is easy to traverse.

293
00:21:07,849 --> 00:21:11,185
All our information substantiates that...

294
00:21:12,479 --> 00:21:13,562
Yes, sir?

295
00:21:14,856 --> 00:21:17,692
Just making sure whose side you're on.

296
00:22:08,327 --> 00:22:11,495
Now a drop zone eight miles
from Arnhem Bridge

297
00:22:11,705 --> 00:22:13,998
might be thought by some
to present problems.

298
00:22:14,082 --> 00:22:15,791
(WHlSPERlNG) My God. He can't mean it.

299
00:22:16,126 --> 00:22:19,211
l'm afraid he does.
He must know what he's doing.

300
00:22:19,379 --> 00:22:21,088
That's more than l know.

301
00:22:21,298 --> 00:22:23,174
Why should he have
the corner of the market?

302
00:22:23,258 --> 00:22:25,343
...cannot under
any stretch of the imagination

303
00:22:25,427 --> 00:22:27,428
be considered ideal,

304
00:22:27,971 --> 00:22:31,349
but the gliders will be bringing in
a reconnaissance squadron ofjeeps

305
00:22:31,433 --> 00:22:34,143
specially fitted with
twin Vickers machine guns.

306
00:22:34,728 --> 00:22:36,228
Now the instant we land,

307
00:22:36,313 --> 00:22:39,065
they will race ahead
to the bridge and hold it

308
00:22:39,816 --> 00:22:42,318
until the other battalions arrive on foot.

309
00:22:42,444 --> 00:22:45,029
And they'll be quick enough to secure
both ends ofArnhem Bridge?

310
00:22:45,113 --> 00:22:46,113
Most certainly.

311
00:22:46,198 --> 00:22:48,783
Good, good.
Now if you all know where l shall be.

312
00:22:48,867 --> 00:22:51,243
My headquarters will be
in the center with 82nd.

313
00:22:51,328 --> 00:22:53,954
Nowjust you remember
that we're all totally interlocked.

314
00:22:54,039 --> 00:22:56,248
This is a bottom to top operation.

315
00:22:56,666 --> 00:22:59,585
1 01 st pass XXX Corps on to 82nd.

316
00:22:59,669 --> 00:23:02,004
82nd pass them on to British Airborne.

317
00:23:03,006 --> 00:23:06,050
lf any one group fails,
it's total failure for us all.

318
00:23:08,345 --> 00:23:09,637
All we need now

319
00:23:10,305 --> 00:23:12,098
are three days of clear skies.

320
00:23:12,182 --> 00:23:14,225
Thank you, gentlemen, very much.

321
00:23:15,811 --> 00:23:17,937
Only the weather can stop us now.

322
00:23:18,688 --> 00:23:19,814
Weather!

323
00:23:20,023 --> 00:23:21,023
(EXCLAlMlNG lN POLlSH)

324
00:23:24,444 --> 00:23:27,113
General Browning, what of the Germans?

325
00:23:27,697 --> 00:23:30,616
Don't you think that since we know that
Arnhem is so crucial to their safety,

326
00:23:30,700 --> 00:23:32,159
they might know that, too?

327
00:23:32,244 --> 00:23:33,536
BROWNlNG: Now, look here.

328
00:23:33,662 --> 00:23:38,374
The few troops
in the area are second class.

329
00:23:38,500 --> 00:23:40,626
They're not frontline caliber,

330
00:23:40,710 --> 00:23:41,836
not at all.

331
00:23:42,170 --> 00:23:43,587
Do you understand?

332
00:23:43,964 --> 00:23:45,589
l think you ought to
have a little more faith

333
00:23:45,674 --> 00:23:47,383
in Montgomery's
intelligence reports, you know.

334
00:23:47,467 --> 00:23:49,927
He's done pretty well
for us in last three or four years.

335
00:23:50,011 --> 00:23:52,346
l will tell you the extent of my faith.

336
00:23:53,890 --> 00:23:55,891
l am thinking of asking
for a letter from you

337
00:23:55,976 --> 00:23:58,769
stating that l was forced
to act under your orders

338
00:23:58,854 --> 00:24:00,771
in case my men are massacred.

339
00:24:02,816 --> 00:24:03,983
l see.

340
00:24:06,153 --> 00:24:08,112
Yes, l do see.

341
00:24:12,492 --> 00:24:14,201
Do you wish such a letter?

342
00:24:15,787 --> 00:24:16,829
No.

343
00:24:18,415 --> 00:24:19,832
No, of course not.

344
00:24:20,375 --> 00:24:22,042
ln the case of massacre,

345
00:24:22,711 --> 00:24:24,628
what difference would it make?

346
00:24:35,223 --> 00:24:37,808
-You mean you don't believe me, sir?
-STEELE: Well, clearly not.

347
00:24:37,893 --> 00:24:40,436
All right, boys.
NAAFl's up. Take your break.

348
00:24:42,564 --> 00:24:43,772
God almighty.

349
00:24:43,857 --> 00:24:45,316
Sorry about that, sir.

350
00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:46,650
But what, then?

351
00:24:46,735 --> 00:24:49,153
l just don't believe
these damn radios are strong enough

352
00:24:49,237 --> 00:24:52,031
to carry the eight miles

what genuinely and truly
has me more than a bit disturbed,

361
00:25:11,009 --> 00:25:12,843
is that Holland being half under water,

362

than most deserts you're apt to find.

on the bridge himself by nightfall.

-l'm Bobby Stout.
-How do you do?

1056

Hell of a day, huh? Look at them. Wild.

1057
01:31:46,250 --> 01:31:47,751
Have you ever been liberated?

1058
01:31:47,835 --> 01:31:49,586

01:31:49,670 --> 01:31:50,837
Yes. That counts.

Hey, that Bailey crap.
You got it amongst this stuff?

1061
01:31:53,508 --> 01:31:55,425
When you refer to Bailey crap,

1062
01:31:55,510 --> 01:31:59,804
l take it you mean that glorious
precision-made British-built bridge

1063
01:31:59,889 --> 01:32:01,806
which is the envy of the civilized world.

1064
01:32:01,891 --> 01:32:02,849
Yeah.

1065
01:32:02,934 --> 01:32:05,227
Right, well, the trucks
are down there somewhere,

1066
01:32:05,311 --> 01:32:07,854
but how you're gonna get them
through this crowd, l don't know.

1067

Where the hell have you been?

01:32:40,513 --> 01:32:42,681
With some Dutch friends
at Nijmegen. Look.

1074
01:32:42,765 --> 01:32:44,683
This is why we can't take the bridge.

1075
01:32:44,767 --> 01:32:46,393
The Germans have moved in
SS Panzer troops.

1076
01:32:46,477 --> 01:32:48,895
You'd think they didn't want us to
get across or something.

You can see on this map.

1080

Every street leading
to that bridge is blocked.

1081
01:32:57,154 --> 01:32:59,155
Every house around it is occupied.

1082
01:32:59,240 --> 01:33:03,118
The Dutch underground people
say it's just impossible to break through.

1083
01:33:03,995 --> 01:33:05,495
They could be right.

1084
01:33:10,084 --> 01:33:11,585
Where's the captain?

1085
01:33:12,336 --> 01:33:13,420
Dead.

You told me to put him down, sir.

1098

Look, Sergeant,
l'm in no mood for crapping around.

1099

Well, if you don't look at him right now,
he's gonna die.

Come on, Sergeant,
for Christ's sake, get him out of here!

1103

Would you look at him, please, sir?

Johnny Frost and some of his chaps
have managed to get as far as the bridge,

1231
01:51:51,788 --> 01:51:54,206

down here towards the river

1232
01:51:54,290 --> 01:51:56,917

cut them off completely.

the entire division is here,

1234

break through to him.

As you can see,
we're more or less surrounded.

So far, we're holding our own,

1399
02:05:36,362 --> 02:05:37,737
Real nightmare.

1400
02:05:49,792 --> 02:05:52,001
We just got word from
the Dutch resistance people at Arnhem.

1401
02:05:52,086 --> 02:05:54,796
-And?
-lt's not going too well for the British.

1402
02:05:54,922 --> 02:05:57,006
Their main force never reached the bridge,

1403
02:05:57,091 --> 02:05:59,217
and those that did
are hanging on by their fingernails.

1404
02:05:59,301 --> 02:06:01,678
-And General Urquhart?
-He's got his back to the river.

1405
02:06:01,762 --> 02:06:03,388
The Germans have trapped
his men in a pocket

1406
02:06:03,472 --> 02:06:05,431
and they're squeezing it
smaller and smaller.

1407
02:06:05,516 --> 02:06:07,058
How long can he hold?

1408
02:06:09,812 --> 02:06:11,813
Where are those goddamn boats?

1409
02:06:28,497 --> 02:06:29,956
Just keep it clear.

1410
02:06:30,040 --> 02:06:31,207
Right.

1411
02:06:31,292 --> 02:06:33,710
They're no further than we thought.

1412
02:06:34,128 --> 02:06:35,295
-Julian.
-COOK: Sir?

1413
02:06:35,379 --> 02:06:37,380
We've a little change in plans.

1414
02:06:38,257 --> 02:06:40,842
We're going to make
the crossing in daylight.

1415
02:06:41,385 --> 02:06:42,385
Daylight.

1416
02:06:42,469 --> 02:06:44,095
Traffic's all screwed up for miles.

1417
02:06:44,179 --> 02:06:46,139
By the time we're ready, it'll be 0800.

1418
02:06:46,223 --> 02:06:47,640
That's when we go.

1419
02:06:48,058 --> 02:06:49,183
Fine.

1420
02:06:49,727 --> 02:06:53,396
l'd like to wait and go tomorrow night,
but the British can't hold.

1421
02:06:54,732 --> 02:06:56,190
Better by daylight.

1422
02:06:57,568 --> 02:06:58,693
Much.

1423
02:07:05,492 --> 02:07:07,118
-Any news of the boats?
-No.

1424
02:07:07,202 --> 02:07:09,162
We're switching... You want some?

1425
02:07:09,246 --> 02:07:10,580
No, thank you.

1426
02:07:10,873 --> 02:07:13,541
We're switching
the start till 9:00 just to make sure.

1427
02:07:13,626 --> 02:07:16,085
You start laying smoke just before we go.

1428
02:07:16,253 --> 02:07:17,503
Fine. Fine.

1429
02:07:17,588 --> 02:07:20,632
They're gonna get creamed
from the far embankment.

1430
02:07:20,716 --> 02:07:23,593
Your smoke screen's gonna be
their only protection.

1431
02:07:24,094 --> 02:07:25,219
Don't worry.

1432
02:07:25,679 --> 02:07:27,055
We'll cover you.

1433
02:07:27,806 --> 02:07:28,931
Please.

1434
02:07:39,026 --> 02:07:41,069
Okay, can l have your attention, please?

1435
02:07:41,153 --> 02:07:42,904
Can l have your attention?

1436
02:07:43,405 --> 02:07:45,740
l'm pleased to inform you
that our 9:00 departure

1437
02:07:45,824 --> 02:07:47,575
has been postponed till 1 0:00.

1438
02:07:47,660 --> 02:07:50,745
So you can all have
an extra hour's fun and relaxation.

1439
02:07:51,497 --> 02:07:52,622
-Major.
-Yes?

1440
02:07:52,706 --> 02:07:55,166
We got any more information
on those boats?

1441
02:07:55,250 --> 02:07:57,627
We're reliably informed that they float.

1442
02:07:58,087 --> 02:08:00,171
Outside of that, we don't know squat.

1443
02:08:00,255 --> 02:08:02,965
Not how many,
not how heavy, not how big.

1444
02:08:03,717 --> 02:08:07,387
We are sure that the river is wide
and that the current is strong.

1445
02:08:07,763 --> 02:08:09,847
And as any more
cheery information comes my way,

1446
02:08:09,932 --> 02:08:11,516
l'll just be too happy to pass it along.

1447
02:08:11,600 --> 02:08:14,852
ln the meantime,
just think of this as on-the-job training.

1448
02:08:17,940 --> 02:08:20,191
What's the matter, no sense of humor?

1449
02:08:22,194 --> 02:08:23,361
God damn it!

1450
02:08:25,447 --> 02:08:26,739
We go at noon.

1451
02:08:39,628 --> 02:08:41,796
Come on! Clear it off the road!

1452
02:09:14,079 --> 02:09:18,166
You men are probably wondering
why l've called us here together.

1453
02:09:19,626 --> 02:09:23,421
l've reached a decision
that l'd like to share with you all.

1454
02:09:25,257 --> 02:09:27,759
l intend to go across
like George Washington,

1455
02:09:27,843 --> 02:09:29,385
standing on the prow.

1456
02:09:30,137 --> 02:09:31,929
You guys can do the rowing.

1457
02:09:39,688 --> 02:09:41,439
That's it! Move them out!

1458
02:09:50,365 --> 02:09:51,616
Come on.

1459
02:09:59,041 --> 02:10:00,166
What the...

1460
02:10:00,876 --> 02:10:04,670
What'd you expect, destroyers?
Come on, put it together. Unload them!

1461
02:10:13,889 --> 02:10:15,389
Careful. Careful!

1462
02:10:18,894 --> 02:10:21,187
Pull it! Son of a bitch! Pull it up!

1463
02:10:21,939 --> 02:10:23,272
How many more?

1464
02:10:23,357 --> 02:10:24,732
Get those sides up.

1465
02:10:24,817 --> 02:10:26,025
Fire!

1466
02:10:32,908 --> 02:10:33,950
(lN GERMAN)

1467
02:10:34,034 --> 02:10:35,576
What else can you see
besides smoke?

1468
02:10:35,661 --> 02:10:39,038
Nothing yet, but they are
going to try a river assault.

1469
02:10:40,249 --> 02:10:41,499
lt will fail.

1470
02:10:41,583 --> 02:10:44,293
Of course it will fail, but...

1471
02:10:44,378 --> 02:10:47,338
what do we do if it doesn't?

1472
02:10:47,422 --> 02:10:50,091
l ask your permission
to blow up the bridge.

1473
02:10:50,175 --> 02:10:51,676
Out of the question.

1474
02:10:53,637 --> 02:10:55,721
l understand, Field Marshal.

1475
02:10:56,682 --> 02:11:00,768
They will not cross the river
and we will blow no bridges.

1476
02:11:00,853 --> 02:11:02,770
Have the demolition charges
been checked?

1477
02:11:02,855 --> 02:11:05,815
Yes, sir.
Everything is wired and ready.

1478
02:11:05,899 --> 02:11:08,734
Captain Kraft
is standing by as ordered.

1479
02:11:10,279 --> 02:11:13,656
The bridge will not fall
into enemy hands.

1480
02:11:14,366 --> 02:11:17,368
As soon as the first
British tank starts to cross...

1481
02:11:18,495 --> 02:11:19,829
l'll blow it sky-high.

1482
02:11:32,843 --> 02:11:35,970
-Let's get going!
-All right! Go, go, go!

1483
02:11:55,073 --> 02:11:58,075
Hurry, get to the water!
Go on, go on, go, boy, go!

1484
02:12:05,584 --> 02:12:07,126
Let's go, come on!

1485
02:12:11,214 --> 02:12:13,132
Jump in, boys. Let's move.

1486
02:12:19,681 --> 02:12:22,308
lf you don't have an oar,
use your rifle butt!

1487
02:12:22,392 --> 02:12:24,352
Anything! Row! Row!

1488
02:12:49,962 --> 02:12:51,671
(CHANTlNG) One! Two!

1489
02:12:59,179 --> 02:13:01,973
The current's taking us down.
Stay to your right!

1490
02:13:09,231 --> 02:13:12,233
-Support fire ordered, sir.
-GAVlN: Right. Thank you.

1491
02:13:14,653 --> 02:13:15,903
Row!

1492
02:13:34,006 --> 02:13:35,214
Get down!

1493
02:13:39,928 --> 02:13:45,599
Go! Go!

1494
02:13:48,103 --> 02:13:52,440
Hail Mary, full of grace.

1495
02:13:52,941 --> 02:13:54,191
Hail Mary.

1496
02:13:54,276 --> 02:13:55,693
Over to the right!

1497
02:13:55,777 --> 02:13:58,779
Hail Mary, full of grace.
Hail Mary, full of grace.

1498
02:13:58,864 --> 02:14:00,031
Hail Mary...

1499
02:14:04,619 --> 02:14:08,622
Hail Mary, full of grace.

1500
02:14:10,125 --> 02:14:11,959
(CHANTlNG) One! Two!

1501
02:14:12,627 --> 02:14:14,587
Hail Mary, full of grace.

1502
02:14:16,840 --> 02:14:18,340
Keep rowing!

1503
02:14:20,635 --> 02:14:21,969
Straight ahead!

1504
02:14:24,139 --> 02:14:30,561
Hail Mary, full of grace.

1505
02:14:31,521 --> 02:14:33,189
We're drifting! Pull to your left!

1506
02:14:33,273 --> 02:14:35,816
-Come on, pull!
-COOK: Hail Mary, full of grace.

1507
02:14:38,487 --> 02:14:40,821
Go, boys. Keep rowing!

1508
02:14:41,073 --> 02:14:43,157
Hail Mary, full of grace.

1509
02:14:44,201 --> 02:14:47,953
Hail Mary, full of grace.
Hail Mary, full of grace.

1510
02:14:49,664 --> 02:14:50,790
Stay down!

1511
02:14:52,125 --> 02:14:53,209
Hail Mary.

1512
02:14:53,585 --> 02:14:54,919
Come on, boys!

1513
02:14:55,879 --> 02:14:57,713
COOK: ...full of grace. Hail Mary.

1514
02:14:59,174 --> 02:15:03,052
Hail Mary, full of grace.

1515
02:15:05,013 --> 02:15:09,183
Thy will be done.

1516
02:15:09,267 --> 02:15:11,560
-Hail Mary, full of grace.
-Thy will be done.

1517
02:15:11,645 --> 02:15:13,521
Hail Mary, full of grace.

1518
02:15:13,647 --> 02:15:15,439
Thy will be done.

1519
02:15:21,947 --> 02:15:23,197
Let's go!

1520
02:15:38,505 --> 02:15:40,548
Snipers! Snipers!

1521
02:15:51,935 --> 02:15:57,439
Help me. Help me.

1522
02:16:14,916 --> 02:16:16,250
Go up the side!

1523
02:16:28,013 --> 02:16:30,806
-Can we make it through the tunnel?
-No way, sir.

1524
02:16:33,476 --> 02:16:36,020
-Get up the bank.
-l'm with you, sir.

1525
02:16:49,201 --> 02:16:50,659
Cover. Cover.

1526
02:16:59,961 --> 02:17:01,128
Come on.

1527
02:17:02,172 --> 02:17:04,131
Let's go. Right here.

1528
02:17:09,471 --> 02:17:10,804
Follow me up here.

1529
02:17:45,507 --> 02:17:48,259
Sergeant! Take four across. Draw fire.

1530
02:17:48,343 --> 02:17:50,803
Harry and l'll go up the side. You cover.

1531
02:17:51,012 --> 02:17:53,597
-Go!
-Go, go, go, go, go, go, go!

1532
02:17:59,187 --> 02:18:01,480
-Come on.
-Come on! Let's go!

1533
02:18:21,042 --> 02:18:22,084
(lN GERMAN)

1534
02:18:22,168 --> 02:18:23,460
Are you ready?

1535
02:18:23,545 --> 02:18:24,712
Yes, General.

1536
02:18:35,223 --> 02:18:36,390
Cover me.

1537
02:18:40,729 --> 02:18:42,479
Damn it. God damn it.

1538
02:19:12,385 --> 02:19:13,385
(lN GERMAN)

1539
02:19:13,470 --> 02:19:14,470
Now.

1540
02:19:16,973 --> 02:19:17,973
Now!

1541
02:19:18,850 --> 02:19:22,102
Again!

1542
02:19:32,072 --> 02:19:33,072
(lN GERMAN)

1543
02:19:33,156 --> 02:19:36,492
My God, they're only
1 8 kilometers from Arnhem.

1544
02:19:37,619 --> 02:19:39,536
Who can stop them now?

1545
02:19:41,498 --> 02:19:42,873
No one.

1546
02:20:03,019 --> 02:20:04,436
Come on!

1547
02:20:15,323 --> 02:20:16,698
Oh, hell.

1548
02:20:17,033 --> 02:20:18,659
Any chance, Whitney?

1549
02:20:18,993 --> 02:20:21,328
Not unless we're relieved
in the next few hours, sir.

1550
02:20:21,413 --> 02:20:22,830
FROST: Harry?

1551
02:20:23,206 --> 02:20:24,915
Try and get him down
to the cellar, will you?

1552
02:20:24,999 --> 02:20:26,500
Very good, sir.

1553
02:20:52,068 --> 02:20:53,277
lt's working.

1554
02:20:53,778 --> 02:20:55,696
l'm through to HQ. Where's the colonel?

1555
02:20:55,780 --> 02:20:57,489
-Down below.
-Well, get him! Get him.

1556
02:20:57,574 --> 02:20:58,907
Colonel Frost!

1557
02:20:58,992 --> 02:21:00,993
-What is it?
-Up top!

1558
02:21:01,786 --> 02:21:03,537
Up top, sir!

1559
02:21:04,456 --> 02:21:06,832
RADlO OPERATOR: lt's headquarters, sir,
on the radio!

1560
02:21:07,083 --> 02:21:08,292
Coming!

1561
02:21:11,838 --> 02:21:14,465
RADIO OPERATOR: Sunray on set.
Pass your message. Over.

1562
02:21:15,508 --> 02:21:17,926
What's your situation, Johnny? Over.

1563
02:21:18,011 --> 02:21:20,304
l hadn't expected the pleasure, sir. Well...

1564
02:21:20,388 --> 02:21:21,930
We're holding out.

1565
02:21:24,434 --> 02:21:28,395
We need reinforcements
and, above all, ammunition. Over.

1566
02:21:28,521 --> 02:21:31,315
l'm not sure if it's a case
of us coming for you,

1567
02:21:31,941 --> 02:21:33,609
or you coming for us.

1568
02:21:33,693 --> 02:21:36,695
Well, we'll just wait for XXX Corps then.

1569
02:21:36,779 --> 02:21:38,363
That would probably be best.

1570
02:21:39,115 --> 02:21:41,533
Very reassuring talking to you, sir.

1571
02:21:43,369 --> 02:21:44,495
l'm sorry, Johnny.

1572

02:41:26,593 --> 02:41:27,760
Well, then?

1747
02:41:33,767 --> 02:41:36,936
Well, that's it, then.
We're pulling them out.

1748
02:41:43,235 --> 02:41:44,777
lt was Nijmegen.

1749
02:41:45,904 --> 02:41:49,699
lt was the single road getting to Nijmegen.

1750
02:41:50,200 --> 02:41:51,951
No. lt was after Nijmegen.

1751
02:41:56,623 --> 02:41:59,500
And the fog in England.

1752
02:42:04,214 --> 02:42:06,006
Doesn't matter what it was.

1753
02:42:06,967 --> 02:42:08,092
When one man says to another,

1754
02:42:08,176 --> 02:42:11,220
"l know what let's do today,
let's play the war game,"

1755
02:42:12,139 --> 02:42:13,472
everybody dies.

1756
02:42:17,561 --> 02:42:18,853
ROY: "Withdraw."

1757
02:42:21,982 --> 02:42:24,525
Two days, they said.
We've been here nine.

1758
02:42:26,194 --> 02:42:29,321
One bloody mile.
You'd think they could accomplish that.

1759
02:42:30,365 --> 02:42:32,450
MACKENZlE: Hancock, here are another...

1760
02:42:32,534 --> 02:42:33,784
Thank you, sir.

1761
02:42:33,869 --> 02:42:35,619
The last two l could find.

1762
02:42:35,871 --> 02:42:39,749
Charles, we've been given
our marching orders.

1763
02:42:43,378 --> 02:42:46,589
lf they discover we're leaving,
they'll go all out to destroy us.

1764
02:42:46,673 --> 02:42:48,758
So we must take every precaution.

1765
02:42:48,842 --> 02:42:51,719
Now, l've designed this
like a collapsing bag.

1766
02:42:51,803 --> 02:42:54,054
Macdonald here has agreed
to man the wireless

1767
02:42:54,139 --> 02:42:56,098
in order to give the Germans
something to listen to.

1768
02:42:56,183 --> 02:43:00,561
And all the padres and the medical staff
have volunteered to stay behind as well.

1769
02:43:00,771 --> 02:43:02,772
Now, the wounded,
who are too bad to move,

1770
02:43:02,856 --> 02:43:04,690
will replace the men firing,

1771
02:43:05,484 --> 02:43:07,651
so our defense will seem as before.

1772
02:43:07,986 --> 02:43:10,446
By the time the Germans
find out what's happening,

1773
02:43:10,530 --> 02:43:12,990
we should all be safely across the river.

1774
02:43:14,743 --> 02:43:18,037
-Pleasant journey.
-ALL: Thank you, sir.

1775

-Are you all right, laddie?
-Thank you, sir.

1776
02:45:13,194 --> 02:45:16,572
l'm beginning to believe
we're actually going to make it, sir.

1777
02:45:16,656 --> 02:45:19,491
l thought everyone knew
God was a Scotsman.

1778
02:46:56,631 --> 02:46:59,258
General Browning will be
down right away, sir.

1779
02:47:05,598 --> 02:47:08,642
He wondered if you perhaps
might like to change.

1780
02:47:09,227 --> 02:47:10,436
Change?

1781
02:47:10,687 --> 02:47:12,104
Your clothes, sir.

1782
02:47:13,982 --> 02:47:15,357
No, thanks.

l'm not sure that l'll know for a while,

02:47:43,887 --> 02:47:46,388
but l'm sorry about the way it worked out.

1788

You did all you could.

1789
02:47:51,770 --> 02:47:54,063
Yes, but did everyone else?

1790
02:47:58,276 --> 02:48:01,111
They've got a bed
for you upstairs if you want it.

1791
02:48:02,405 --> 02:48:04,323
l took 1 0,000 men into Arnhem.

1792
02:48:04,657 --> 02:48:06,742
l've come out with less than two.

1793
02:48:07,160 --> 02:48:09,203
l don't feel much like sleeping.

1794
02:48:10,538 --> 02:48:11,705
Quite.

1795
02:48:14,667 --> 02:48:16,502
l've just been on to Monty.

1796

He's very proud and pleased.

-Pleased?
-Of course.

1798
02:48:25,053 --> 02:48:27,679
He thinks Market Garden
was 90% successful.

But what do you think?

1800
02:48:34,187 --> 02:48:38,273
Well, as you know, l've always thought
that we tried to go a bridge too far.
