''Where Eagles Dare'' is a 1968 seminal action thriller set in WorldWarII starring ClintEastwood and RichardBurton. It follows in the footsteps of ''Guns of the Navarone'', where there was a shift in war movies, eschewing historical accuracy in favour of exploding Nazis, and a very high {{HSQ}} in order to appeal to a new generation of moviegoers.

A bunch of seven Allied paratroopers are dropped behind enemy lines in the Alps, ostensibly to find and rescue a captured American general who's a key player in the plans for D-Day. However, after some members of the group appear to have been assassinated by a member of the gang and then the local Nazis are informed of their presence, it's clear to the viewer that there's a traitor in their midst. Is everyone in the team who they appear to be? Can the team accomplish their mission against all odds? And how many Nazis can be killed in just one castle anyway?

This is a shoehorned example. They're never really functioning as a group, for instance Major von Hapen doesn't obey Rosemeyer's orders but acts independently. The General is also not the Big Bad - that role belongs to Colonel Turner.
