Wanted: Somebody to go back in time with me.…

While there are no mid-credits or post-credits scene, it’s worth it to stay through the credits because of everyone who worked on this film.

The Bridge on the River Kwai, the Oscar-winning epic directed by David Lean, arrives on 4K UHD in celebration of its 65th Anniversary. “What have I done?” – Colonel Nicholson (Alec Guinness) Like Pierre Boulle’s novel, the film uses the construction of the Burma Railway in 1942–1943 for its main setting.
