I liked the first one Where Eagles Dare, basically it's WW2

A plane gets shooted down into Nazi territory and a team of British spies attempt to rescue an American general who survived the crash from an impregnable castle in the German Alps but, when they discover there are double agents in the group 😁 , the team must discover who the traitors are and then escape against enormous odds.

Richard Burton played Maj John Smith
Clint Eastwood was Lt Morris Schaffer
and Michael Hordern off of Paddington Bears played the part of Admiral Rolland.
