Excellent adaptation and editing! One of my favorite movies of all time.
Steven Spielberg admitted years later that, for this scene, he was inspired by the movie “633 Squadron” – British Mosquitos (all wood – the first stealth aircraft) bomb a German heavy water factory in a Norwegian fjord – not historically accurate, but a great yarn.
