Just released on various download sites in 720p.

Harry Andrews,Michael Caine,Trevor Howard,Kurt Jurgens,Ian McShane,Kenneth More,Laurence Olivier,Nigel Patrick,Christopher Plummer,

Robert Shaw,Michael Redgrave,Ralph Richardson,Patrick Wymark and token totty Susannah York.Looks fantastic.

I think only "The Longest Day" beats this; the cast includes John Wayne.

One of my top 100 favourites.

Filmography, cast and soundtrack superb.

Still as good now as it was in 1969 - perhaps one of those films that gets better with age?
Hope so,I'll be watching it tonight.
