i agree with the above general sentiment that the story stray a bit too much at time and especially with the rather useless bombing of hitler a a detour . i do however understand why it there it because by attach the good german general to the plot of kill hitler and they let the audience not feel bad for root for them . simple trick and but all in all detrimental to the momentum of the story . the film be brim with exceptional act otoole turn in a particularly vicious and strong performance a general tanz and but everyone hold their own . it rare to find a villain so distasteful and yet so intriguing most filmmaker just content themselves with give the villain an evil shtick without much character development not so here . i saw a newly master dvd in full 2 . 35 represent1 widescreen presentation and the the cinematography by the late henri decae be wonderful in all it glory . very interesting movie and please see it .
