Victory at Entebbe movie clip
Plot synopsis: Minutes after departing Athens on June 27, 1976, Air France Flight 139 was commandeered by militant terrorists. On board were 256 passengers and crew, 106 of whom were Jewish. Their new destination: Entebbe Airport in Uganda, the African nation ruled by ruthless strongman Idi Amin. Their only hope: a desperate rescue by Israeli commandoes. From a trio which would next collaborate on Roots - executive producer David L. Wolper, writer Ernest Kinoy and director Marvin J. Chomsky - comes the story of one of the most dramatic adventures in modern history. And like Roots, the ensemble is stellar, headed by Burt Lancaster, Elizabeth Taylor, Anthony Hopkins, Kirk Douglas, Helen Hayes and Richard Dreyfuss. The world held its breath while heroes did their work: Victory at Entebbe thrillingly recounts the result.
