The Bridge on the River Kwai (1971) First Time Watching! Full Movie Reaction!!

Comments

What a masterpiece of film-making! Also, its based upon a true story-- the Japanese Army forced British POWs to work on their Burma railroad and thousands of them died.

I think its interesting Sam how you said Col Nicholson needs to be more realistic about where he is because that's exactly what this movie explores. Colonel Nicholson, played by Alec Guinness, embodies idealism, focusing on the principles of honor, discipline, and duty. His commitment to building the bridge, despite being a prisoner of war, reflects his belief in upholding these ideals, even under extreme circumstances. On the other hand, the character of Shears, played by William Holden, represents realism. He is more pragmatic and concerned with survival and practical outcomes rather than adhering to lofty principles. The film illustrates the tension between these conflicting viewpoints and how they influence the characters' actions and decisions. The bridge itself becomes a symbol of this struggle, as it represents both the idealism of Nicholson's efforts and the realistic need to destroy it to achieve the mission of the Allied forces.
