The Long and the Short and the Tall (1961)

Reposted from September 2021

Now with multiple optional subtitles. Other languages are available on request.

An old favourite based on a 1959 play with the same name by Willis Hall.

It is an early example of a war film that has sympathies with the enemy

as opposed to the usual gung-ho propaganda stuff.

A young David McCallum is part of the cast.

He shot to fame as Illya Kuryakin in The Man from U.N.C.L.E

and, of course, for his role in Colditz.

We can forgive him for Sapphire & Steel.
