Bridge on the River Kwai - full length movie. Oscars galore for this 1958 movie. It was taken out after dozens of air raids by US Army Air Corps bombers (not by a sapper team lead by supposed USS Houston survivor (William Holden). A bit melodramatic and prisoners with a bit too much fat on their bones, but somewhat accurate and historic other than the bridge was NOT blown by the prisoners or a sabotage team at all. |

The Story of the USS Houston & the POW Experiences |
The True Story of the Bridge on the River Kwai (History Channel) - Available from The History Channel. This two hour documentary takes the fluff out of the melodrama movie and gives the real inside story. Note: The prisoners DID NOT whistle as they went to work as slaves on the railroad. Highly recommended by the Houston Survivors as an accurate presentation. |
