I saw this movie in the sixties along with my father and grandfather in a theatre in Calcutta. Recently I saw it again with my daughter and grandson. The magic still lingers!
The best WWII commando, if not one of the best movies ever made, with a stellar cast, story, cinematography, soundtrack, etc., etc., one of my all time favorites. I never get tired of watching it.
This is one of those films that if you stumble across it when flicking through the channels you finish up watching the whole thing, even if you've seen it 50 times already. A bit like Zulu or The Great Escape!
Lol yeah I stumbled on this HITS channel and ended up watching the whole movie, I was like 3/4 part of the movie and now I'm scheduled to watch this from beginning
I remember seeing this great film at a drive-in with my parents and brothers in 1961. What a tremendous cast and what a dramatic conclusion to the film! Even then as a little kid, I thought Gia Scala was incredibly beautiful. Sadly, Ms. Scala died much too young. The less said about the so-called sequel, the better.
My father was only 18 when he took his girlfriend/future wife/my mother to see this fresh in the cinemas. They both raised me to love the sweeping epic films of their youth, and having grown up on films of the 70's-90's, I can say that I am honored to have watched THE GUNS OF NAVARONE and its kind. I consider TGON to be among the most perfect action/WW2 dramas of the 60's.
Those were the days when huge Hollywood blockbusters would have multip!e talents? Check out the credits in films like "the longest day" like a whos who of hollywood?
One of this “boomer’s” favorite all-time WW2 movies. No crazy, gonzo, muscle-bound “Seal Team-6” Arian Superman types. Just a group of tough men who looked and sounded like the ones we grew up around...our fathers...who had fears, vulnerabilities, a hatred of war but a dedication to duty.
That was an era of great stars who could act.Gregory Peck, Anthony Quayle, Anthony Quinn, David Niven and Stanley Baker in the same film. No wonder we get nostalgic.
If you haven't seen this movie, then see it. If you have seen it, see it again. This is what action film making is all about. All of the major actors in this film are at the top of their craft and the top of their careers.
@Madami na ako Nakantot Ive seen a lot of pathetic comments on TH-cam. But you are by far the biggest asshole I have ever seen on TH-cam and that is saying a lot. Crawl back into the sewer you piece of sh!t.
I saw this classic with my father Davis Perez and my mother Angelina Flores who just passed away from dementia on 12/18/17 in 1961 at the State theatre in Bay City, Tx back when going 2 a movie when going 2 the cinema was a real treet.
There are so many great scenes in this movie. The whole interrogation scene is memorable but Anthony Quinn's performance is a classic. Also the scene when Anna is killed when exposed as a traitor. The argument between Peck and Niven definitely cuts to the bone!
The Guns of Navarone, superb film of Hollywood I had seen in my young age. Superb performance of the great Gregory Peck, Anthony Queen and David Nivan. Thanks for providing us this best scene of this film.
Superb scene from an all time classic. My favorite though would be the Storm scene and the team climbing the cliff, 15-20 minutes of sheer brilliance. Of course every part of this movie is a classic, especially the scenes between Peck, Niven and Quinn, 3 actors at the top of their form.
You hit it, as in "the nail on the head", Ratnakar, sir! Why is J. Lee Thompson always ignored by the film historians? I have no idea, as he is technically a great actors' director, and nobody has ever shot action like this man has! With Carl Foreman's terrific script, Thompson was called in to replace another director (perhaps Anthony Mann, another great director) and with no time to prepare, Tompson did the most bang-up job in film history!
My favorite scene is when Tony Quinn "loses his nerve" in the Nazi interrogation scene. What a truly brilliant actor he was. Along with Greg Peck, they have starred in my favorite movies of all time. What does that tell you?
Filmed in the AEGEAN SEA AAND ON THE ISLAND OF RHODES IN GREECE..... I remember the almost sailing reports about making the film reading them on the newspapers or hearing about the making on the radio It had a psychological effect on the nation for acknowledging the important part that Greece played in the WW2 and the resistance against Italians Germans and Bulgarians as occupying forces for 4 years leaving a devastated country with the highest percentile loss of human lives in Europe
I’m English and live in south east Bulgaria. I’m only just discovering the truth about the occupation of Greece, the torture and summary executions of more than 40,000 Greeks in WW2. Truly shocking. We visited NIs in Serbia. Fifteen thousand civilians were shot by the Germans in reprisals for partisan attacks. Crimes like that took place in every town and city across the country. Truly horrifying!
I remember this film like it was yesterday. This boat scene really blew everyone's minds in the movie theater (does that tell you how old I am??). I just bought it on DVD, and it still holds up today, amazing. Particular kudos to the incredible soundtrack too, written by Dimitri Tiomkin, probably one of the best film composers who ever lived.
I saw this movie several times, first in cinema, then on CD, DVD. This should tell my age. About 8 years ago when my wife and I planned to travel to Europe, I told her my wish to visit Navarone where the big gun was. My wife laughed her head off and said that it was a fake war story. But it is still a great movie, no doubt ! I am watching it still today and consider it a true event in my mind.
@@gregorysuarez7978 I think the British used Comp C/C4 during WWII. Some other variants. That said - a demolitions expert as Miller is meant to be would more than likely have his own concoctions.
This movie remains on top of my war movies list for well over fifty years. “Where eagles dare” came close, but couldn’t make it. Storm Scene alone blows many of them away. I don’t know how these movie makers did the character building in those days man. Of course they were the true geniuses.
@@cruscante yes those were great movies and I enjoy them all, but this movie in particular has something about it that I can’t put my finger upon, still remains on top after all these years. However I must say few on top have only point or two difference between them. They are all great. Thanks.
@@5332wonderboy Gregory Peck Anthony Quinn and David Niven and others were superb. None can compare today. They were not about biceps but about brilliance.
It is a movie of early 1960s. I saw it ten years later. Out of thousands of action films I have seen during the five decades, most are forgotten. But I still remember it.
I have the entire collection of Alistair MacLean novels, except two or three. I had read all the novels as a member of lending library but couldn't get some of them in my collection . Really mesmarizing and stunning dialogues, both serious and full of comedy. Especially in the books Guns of Navarone. And Force 10 from Navarone, the dialogues of character Dusty Miller, are the most enjoyable.
I love the Alistair McClean novels that where made into movies in the 1960s. The Guns Of Navarone was followed by Ice Station Zebra in 1968 and Where Eagle Dare in 1969.
In 1992 I lived and worked in a small village in the Hindu Kush. this was the only English video in the whole village, needless to say I watched it multiple times but never got bored of it.
I remember this film ..it was recorded on video cassette by my cousin ,I was barely 8 yrs old and always watched it whenever I went to their home in school holidays..couldn't understand but loved to see the ships and boats in splendid blue ocean...I still cherish the memories..those late 80' s and early 90' s were mesmerizing.
The first time I watched this was with my dad and I had no clue what it was about. I was that small. The only thing I remember so well was the sound (sirens?) of the British fleet towards the end. But when I watched it again on my own this entire movie blew me away. For me this is one of the best out there.
The thing that impresses me about James Darren is he sings in Greek in one of the scenes in the movie, and as a Greek myself I have to say he pronounces the Greek words very well. Now in this scene with Gregory Peck(He talks in Greek to German officer ) you can tell by the way he speaks Greek that he is not Greek .The Greek words were not pronounced right.James Darren it seems took his role more seriously by singing a Greek song perfectly ,making sure to pronounce the words correctly .
This Film ''Guns of Navarone'' was my 2nd English film, which father took me along in 1969 for an Evening show at the Aurora Theatre in Matunga, Mumbai.(then Bombay) The hero is Gregory Peck (Mackenna's Gold fame)
Classic Film played by classic actors who we will never see again. We should always thank those men and woman that give us our freedom today. God bless them all.
The country has been betrayed from within by powerful interests who've used the offices and machinery of government for their own ends and to the detriment of everyone else. The damage done internally by these people (the massive debt-burden and the concomitant inflation, the export of jobs and the flooding of the country with cheap labour migrants, the run-down of national infrastructure, the massive spending on military hardware, the foreign wars that rarely go right,..: all this stuff wasn't the work of foreign enemies, of their armies and agents, but has resulted from a rigged, corrupt political/legal system and the corporate and high-financial interests that control it.
Another time awesome great movie back in 1961. Great movie stars and production with what they had in technology back in those days. Men were Men back in those days.
As a teenager, I read Alistair Mc Lean's book (its French translation in post-French rule Vietnam). Mc Lean was a master storyteller (Guns of Navarone, Where Eagles Dare among others). The book was riveting, and quite moving. So when I belatedly watched this movie, the on-screen adaptation of the book, frankly, I first felt a bit like a letdown. Since then I have enjoyed watching it many more times on DVD. G Peck, A Quinn, D Niven's acting , its breathtaking cinematography, and its beautiful musical score. One of the greatest war movie, in my opinion, which they do not make anymore. Nevertheless, my memories from the books are unforgettable. Thank you Mr Mc Lean! RIP
Sorry it was released in plaza theatre MG Road Bangalore in 1962 i saw this movie more than 5 times those days was 15 years old not in Vijayalakshmi theatre in chickpet
The scene is ABSOLUTELY INSANE. It would NEVER HAPPEN in real war. This is why: 1. The captain would NEVER leave his ship. 2. Before the boarding group would go to the fishing boat, all the men on the boat would be ordered to stand with hands up and turned back 3. The guns of the patrol boat would be aiming at the men on the boat ready to fire in 1 second
People get lazy and let their guards down. That Patrol boat had probably searched dozens of fishing boats and found nothing but fish. The Commandos had prepared their ambush, taking out the deck gunner and then throwing explosives down the vents.
All time classics , you never get tired even today of seeing that movie

Guns of Navarone seen in on school days in a word I will say a film to see and remember for years. From Muniprasad.
I've seen it, possibly over a thousand times, and possibly another, all around excellent everything.
Cliff climbing by Gregory Peck and "I am a poor fisherman" acting by Anthony Quinn will ever remain in memory. A great movie.

I saw this film along with my father about 50 yrs back night show 10 pm in vijayalakshmi theatre in bengalore
Sorry it was released in plaza theatre MG Road Bangalore in 1962 i saw this movie more than 5 times those days was 15 years old not in Vijayalakshmi theatre in chickpet
The scene is ABSOLUTELY INSANE. It would NEVER HAPPEN in real war. This is why:
1. The captain would NEVER leave his ship.
2. Before the boarding group would go to the fishing boat, all the men on the boat would be ordered to stand with hands up and turned back
3. The guns of the patrol boat would be aiming at the men on the boat ready to fire in 1 second
Films are meant to highlight a successful event !enjoy the action !
Are you speaking from experience or are you just comparing it to Apocalypse Now scene?
He thought it was a fishing boat not a commando crewed one.
@@roysimmons3549 : during a war a soldier never assumes anything.
People get lazy and let their guards down. That Patrol boat had probably searched dozens of fishing boats and found nothing but fish. The Commandos had prepared their ambush, taking out the deck gunner and then throwing explosives down the vents.
I saw this movie when I was 13 years old with parents and bros and sister in Bombay in 1962 wait g to get after six mnyhs classic movie in those days
Now this is how you direct an action sequence. Today it's all this rapid cutting, shakey cam Jason Bourne crap.

Actually Jason Bourne (the first one) was pretty good, almost no effects too.
I don't mind special effects. What I can't stand is how action is cut these days. Everything moves too quickly and nothing is coherent.
Matt Damon is not in this league of actors@@ToreDL87
"Well shucks Captain, it sure looked like a harmless fishing boat"!
Gregory Peck!!! Handsome dude!! Great movie!! Classic!!
