Synopsis: A historic telling of the failed attempt to capture several bridges to Germany in World War II in a campaign called Operation Market Garden

This is one of the more accurate World War II films I have seen, and a great film about Operation Market Garden. Though the film is not completely accurate (No film is ever completely accurate), I like it because it is more accurate than most other World War II films. I also have this film on DVD.
