Kelly's Heroes

In 1944 France, during World War II, United States Army Private Kelly—a former lieutenant scapegoated for a failed infantry assault—captures Colonel Dankhopf of Wehrmacht Intelligence. Kelly realizes that Dankhopf is carrying several gold bars and after getting him drunk, learns that they are from a cache of 14,000 gold bars worth $16 million, stored in a bank 30 miles behind German lines in the French town of Clermont. Clint Eastwood stars as the title character who convinces his platoon, including eccentric hippy tank commander "Oddball", to spend their three-day leave on a gold heist at a French village 30 miles behind enemy lines.
