IT would make a great movie, but I can see a few problems...

Lcak of a happy ending

Americans don't come to the rescue

No love story (A.K.A. sex scene)

English accents that would need subtiles to be understood

Germans win (at least this battle!)

I remember. Been a while since I read it, but...let's say my opinion isn't the same as most of the other folks who've posted about it.

Well it's a 'MacLean - book', Hollywood has traditionally loved that stuff.

bookworm_020,

Good points but I'd like to think that there is a growing audience to some more realistic WW 2 movies that show more than just the typical point of view.
