![]() | I've been researching on the movie, "Where Eagles Dare" and it seems like a really great movie! You guys already know what a conservative movie person that I am nowadays. I was watching a trailer for this movie and there was one scene where one of the characters asks the girl to take her clothes off. Does this scene actually occur or was it just in the trailer? Is there any nudity or sex in the movie? Thanks!

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Not that I can remember, I used to love it when I was a kid but it is real "Boys Own " comic book stuff. Daft things like magazines that never empty etc etc I love the soundtrack though. YouTube - Where Eagles Dare - Main Theme ohh...just gone all goose-bumpy.

Very mild indeed! It just lets the viewer know that they are/were in a previous relationship.

![]() ![]() ![]() | I have to admit that I never really liked this film, although I always liked the Camouflage scheme of the JU52 at the end of the film.

![]() | While far from being an accurate WWII film, I've always loved Where Eagles Dare simply because it's a really fun adventure film. Of course, having Clint Eastwood and Richard Burton certainly helps a lot, too!
