Can anyone tell me the title of a war film that ended with men in a basement playing cards while the enemy was flooding them out please?
Operation Daybreak - 1975 - with Anthony Andrews, Martin Shaw and Timothy Bottoms. It was about Czech SOE trained operatives assassinating Reynard Heydrich in Prague in 1942. He was Deputy Protector of Bohemia and Moravia and a Senior SS officer second only to Himmler who originally headed up the Gestapo during the early Nazi years. In real life the two SOE agents took refuge in a Church crypt after the attempt and as the Germans surrounded it and opened fire they committed suicide rather than be captured. From memory in the film they do this as waters rise. The Germans levelled Lidice and Lezaky in revenge killing all males over 16 and thousands were arrested, deported and killed in the aftermath.
