Colonel Nicholson (Alec Guinness) and World War II prisoners are ordered to build a bridge for the Japanese. Initially, they planned sabotage, but Nicholson forced them to complete it—as a symbol of honor. Meanwhile, an Allied commando team prepares to blow up the bridge. Between the betrayals and madness of war, who really wins? An Oscar-winning war epic that questions the meaning of loyalty and madness.
