        Seems the 50th Anniversary is upon us . . . and this "tell-all" book might be a neat read:

        Broadsword Calling Danny Boy: Watching "Where Eagles Dare"
        Geoff Dyer
        February 12, 2019

        From a writer of "derelict luminosity" (David Mitchell), a scene-by-scene exploration of Where Eagles Dare, one of cinema's most cherished and popular films, on the occasion of its 50th anniversary.

        Geoff Dyer has loved Where Eagles Dare since childhood. It is both a thrillingly realized Alpine World War II adventure with tough, compelling acting from its two great stars, Richard Burton and Clint Eastwood, and a flippant travesty, reducing the central disaster in Europe's modern history to a series of huge explosions and peopled by campy SS officers.

        As he did in Zona--which took on Andrei Tarkovsky's Stalker--in Broadsword Calling Danny Boy, Dyer gives us a scene-by-scene reaction to and reading of the film. And perhaps as only he can, the author both extols and denigrates--lovingly and entertainingly no matter which way he falls--this acme of the late '60s action movie.

              It is certainly a "MUST" . . .

              That whole region still ranks near the top, of all my most favorites places to have visited. I will never forget those experiences, so long as I live . . .

                              Wow love the railway model, also wonder if any of their kit in that black & white studio photo is genuine, obviously the Kubel but some of the other props ?

                                If this movie does not inspire one to become a TR collector, then nothing will. It did me.
