Best naration off a classic

where eagles dare, best listened to on a cold snowy winter night with a hot soup and crunchy buttery bread, fantatic narration and captures imagination right from beginning to the end. love the movie and the book they boath compliment each other so well. their are lots off things the movie added that was not in the book and visa vera so it keeps your imagination sharp to ponder.
