Theirs is the Glory earned some of the highest critical praise ever afforded a British wartime docudrama. This is the filmed record of the ill-fated battle of Arnhem in September of 1944, when the Allied forces combined to force a total German retreat from Holland. The "bridge too far" at Arnhem proved to be the Waterloo of this particular strategy, due to a series of unforseen mishaps and miscalculations. Of the 10,000 troops engaged in the offensive, 8,000 lost their lives. Without sugarcoating the disaster, the film points out the courage and sacrifice of the men involved in the mission. Brian Desmond Hurst directed Theirs is the Glory, while the large cast of "re-enactors" performed sans screen credit. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Financially strapped Stuart Rome sells all of his horses except one colt which goes on to win the big race giving him the needed capital to get back on his feet. ~ Rovi

In this romance, a Scotsman, dull as cold oatmeal, attempts to become a suave and witty rake to impress an effervescent, sophisticated lady with expensive tastes. But despite his best efforts, the fellow simply cannot sparkle. Finally he sees that he was only attracted to her gaudy exterior and decides that he would rather be his dour old self than someone else. ~ Sandra Brennan, Rovi
