		"The Heroes of Telemark" was based on three different accounts of what the Norwegian Underground had undertaken to sabotage the Nazi machine operating in occupied Norway during World War II.
		There was a scene where the Nazis were shipping the heavy water in railroad cars to be taken to Berlin and a portion of the trip would be transporting it aboard a passenger ferry across one of Norway's deepest lakes.
		These heroic men, though they had hoped to save lives of innocent men, women and children, were under orders from London that nothing could be done to save them and the plan had to be carried out even if it meant the loss of innocent lives.

		Although it runs for 131 minutes, it has practically no character development, which is especially surprising in that character development is what makes Mann's westerns from the 1950s (Winchester 73, Bend of the River, The Man from Laramie, etc.) and epics from the 1960s (Fall of the Roman Empire, the first half of Spartacus) memorable.
		Much of "The Heroes of Telemark" was shot in the historical locations of events in Norway, including the Norsky Hydro Vermork factory and the Lake Tinnsjo railway ferry.
		Reluctant hero professors are also central to Fritz Lang's Hangmen Also Die and "Cloak and Dagger" (and the lively Above Suspicion).

		Both heroes keep making dumb decisions, ones that make the audience groan with impatience: a child of five would know not to do the dumb things these guys keep doing to put their head into the noose.
		In all of these films, the heroine's sharing of the hero's experiences is a voluntary choice on her part, something she does out of loyalty, love and generosity.
		By contrast, the hero, the murder victim and the suspects are all upper crust sophisticates, with ties to the theater world.

	ABC Television: Program summary - The Big Picture: Real Heroes Of Telemark:
		It was the plot of a Hollywood movie called The Heroes of Telemark, starring Kirk Douglas and Richard Harris, but in fact, British television presenter and survival expert Ray Mears claims the film was a pale imitation of the true story.
		Part two has Mears visiting Norway and the Cairngorms in Scotland, to experience the training undergone by the original commandoes and the suppliers of their equipment, many of which are still in business.
		Part three has the surviving heroes of Telemark recall how they carried out one of the most daring raids of World War II, blowing up the power station and stopping Hitler's atomic bomb programme in its tracks.

		After living under cover high on the Hardanger plateau for four months, living on moss and reindeer, the Norwegian team descended and then climbed the 'un-scaleable' gorge below Norsk Hydro; snuck into the facility, set and detonated their charges and escaped back onto the plateau without a single shot being fired.
		He also examines whether, with the benefit of hindsight, their British controllers were negligent in allowing civilian lives to be put at risk, and whether intelligence reports from Germany about the level of atom bomb development were actually ignored before the operation was given the go ahead.

		I know from the Telemark programme he is also a mountain expert.
		I have done a lot of research into Telemark myself as well as spoken to several veterans but to be able to speak to a currently serving soldier who actually undertook the same gruelling actions would help me more precisely with the particular aspect of Telemark which I have been assigned.

		Conflict was filmed from unsettling angles, throwing the audience as well as the hero off balance.
		The very fact that Alton and Mann could transform an essentially rural backdrop into a claustrophobically threatening setting is testament to their inventiveness.
		The scene wherein Whit Bissell as an accused wife killer emerges from the darkness to shatter the sanctity of our hero's hideout is at once surreal and oddly moving, due in no small measure to the way in which Alton and Mann stage the encounter.
