Theirs Is The Glory DVD

| DVD

In September 1944 the Allies launched one of the most audacious attacks of the entire Second World War. Men of the British 1st Airborne Division were landed at Arnhem in Holland to capture and hold a vital bridge across the River Rhine. In one bold move the war could have been shortened by many months. It was a desperately risky strategy and it ended in disaster. Allied intelligence had underestimated German strength in the area including a crack Panzer unit. For days the paratroopers held out against overwhelming odds in a gallant action that has since passed into... military legend - but defeat was inevitable. Theirs Is the Glory is a truly remarkable and totally unique account of that battle. One year after the war survivors from 1st Airborne returned to the actual battlefield amid the ruins of the town and re-enacted the battle in front of film cameras. There are no actors. There are no studio sets. Everything that happens in this extraordinary drama-documentary film actually happened to those taking part or was witnessed by them. There is no finer tribute to the soldiers who gave their lives at Arnhem and no better film record of one of the fiercest-fought battles of the Second World War. [show more]
