Additional InformationOne of the most popular British war films of all time, THE DAM BUSTERS tells the true story of one of the most daring and brilliant raids of World War II. With the campaign for Europe in the balance, Dr. Barnes Wallis (Michael Redgrave) comes up with an ingenious design for a bouncing bomb which could be used to target the great dams in Germany's Ruhr valley. Wing Commander Guy Gibson (Richard Todd) leads the specially-convened squadron on a mission that would become symbolic for the Allies eventual victory over Germany.

  • Good Film from the 1950's

    I saw an interview with Michael Anderson (the director) and he told some of the back story and although I had see the film over 50 years ago decided to take another look. Although a little dated it shows good solid British Cinema and I really enjoyed it. Although the name of the main characters dog which I will not repeat is not pc-it was made in a different time. One if the interesting facts that Michael Anderson said- the actors who portrayed the real life heroes looked very much like them and to go to such detail is commendable. On the whole a good film to watch on a rainy afternoon not only on Sunday as this is a good one.
