The Bridge on the River Kwai - (Lean;1957;USA) - ****
British POWs are forced to build a Japanese bridge unaware there are other soldiers told to destroy it.
Everything an epic should be, The shots are memorable with excellent cinematography. The performances of William Holden, Alec Guinness, and Sessue Hayakawa are all great. This is also influential. It reminded me of a bridge a decade later Clint Eastwood and Eli Wallach would be involved in. A classic epic which makes me wanna see more from Lean.
