The Bridge (1959)

£0.00

(Die Brücke)


Country: GER
Technical: bw 106m
Director: Bernhard Wicki
Cast: Vokler Bohnet, Fritz Wepper, Michael Hinz

Synopsis:

In the dying days of the Third Reich, teenage boys are all that is left to defend a town from the Allied advance; they dig in at the bridge outside town and wait.

Review:

Schematic and slightly over the top parable, whose many clichés are partly compensated for by a handful of striking shots and a well-handled final sequence.
