Where Eagles Dare (1968)

Poster for Where Eagles Dare

One weekend Major Smith, Lieutenant Schaffer, and a beautiful blonde named Mary decided to win World War II.

World War II is raging, and an American general has been captured and is being held hostage in the Schloss Adler, a Bavarian castle that's nearly impossible to breach. It's up to a group of skilled Allied soldiers to liberate the general before it's too late.
