Kelly's Heroes

Overview & Specifications

Action-filled and tongue-in-cheek tale of GIs who decide to get something extra out of the war, starring Clint Eastwood, Telly Savalas, Carroll O'Connor and Donald Sutherland who plot to steal a fortune in Nazi gold from behind enemy lines during WWII.

Kelly (Eastwood) learns of a German bank located behind enemy lines containing $16 million in gold bars. His platoon, has three days of R&R coming, so, with the aid of hustler Crapgame (Don Rickles), anachronistic hippie Oddball (Donald Sutherland), three Sherman tanks and a touch of irreverence, Kelly leads his men deep into French territory to steal the gold for themselves.
