This blazing adventure yarn pulled the public into cinemas in droves when it was first released.

There are fights and nail-biting action scenes galore as six saboteurs, led by Gregory Peck and David Niven, scale massive cliffs in a daring attempt to destroy two enormous German guns pointed firmly in the direction of Allied shipping.

Almost overloaded with stars, the cast also includes Anthony Quayle, Anthony Quinn, Stanley Baker, Irene Papas, Gia Scala, James Darren and Richard Harris.
