Question: Do both films, The Bridge At Remagen and Oru Yugasandhya, have the directors who are from the same country?

The Ludendorff Bridge( sometimes referred to as the Bridge at Remagen) was in early March 1945 a critical remaining bridge across the river Rhine in Germany when it was captured during the Battle of Remagen by United States Army forces during the closing weeks of World War II. Built in World War I to help deliver reinforcements and supplies to the German troops on the Western Front, it connected Remagen on the west bank and the village of Erpel on the eastern side between two hills flanking the river. Midway through Operation Lumberjack, on 7 March 1945, the troops of the 1st U.S. Army approached Remagen and were surprised to find that the bridge was still standing. Its capture, two weeks before Field Marshal Bernard Montgomery's meticulously planned Operation Plunder, enabled the U.S. Army to establish a bridgehead on the eastern side of the Rhine. After the U.S. forces captured the bridge, German forces tried to destroy it multiple times. It finally collapsed on 17 March 1945, ten days after it was captured, killing 33 U.S. Army Engineers and wounding 63. While it stood, the bridge and newly established pontoon bridges enabled the U.S. Army to establish a bridgehead of six divisions, about 25,000 troops, with accompanying tanks, artillery pieces, and trucks, across the Rhine. Capturing the bridge shortened the war, and V- E Day came After the war, the bridge was not rebuilt; the towers on the west bank were converted into a museum and the towers on the east bank are a performing arts space. <SEP> His more well- known films include" I Was Monty's Double"( 1958)," Tarzan's Greatest Adventure"( 1959)," Never Let Go"( 1960)," Tarzan Goes to India"( 1962)," Waltz of the Toreadors"( 1962)," The Blue Max"( 1966)," The Bridge at Remagen"( 1969)," The Towering Inferno"( 1974)," King Kong"( 1976)," Death on the Nile"( 1978)," Sheena"( 1984) and" King Kong Lives"( 1986). John Guillermin( 11 November 192527 September 2015) was a British film director, writer and producer who was most active in big budget, action adventure films throughout his lengthy career. From the 1980s he worked on much less prestigious projects, and his final films consisted of lower budgeted theatrical releases and made- for- TV films. According to one obituary," Regardless of whether he was directing a light comedy, war epic or crime drama, Mr. Guillermin had a reputation as an intense, temperamental perfectionist, notorious for screaming at cast and crew alike. His domineering manner often alienated producers and actors ... But Mr. Guillermin's impeccable eye and ability to capture both intimate moments and large- scale action scenes usually overcame that reputation." <SEP> The Bridge at Remagen is a 1969 DeLuxe Color war film starring George Segal, Ben Gazzara and Robert Vaughn in Panavision. The film, which was directed by John Guillermin, was shot on location in Czechoslovakia. It is based on the nonfiction book" The Bridge at Remagen: The Amazing Story of March 7, 1945" by writer and U. S. Representative Ken Hechler. The screenplay was adapted by Richard Yates and William Roberts. The film is a highly fictionalized version of actual events during the last months of World War II when the 9th Armored Division approached Remagen and captured the intact Ludendorff Bridge. Instead of the real week- long battle and several artillery duels fought between the Americans and German defenders, the film focuses on the heroism and human cost in gaining a bridgehead across the Rhine before the Allies' final advance into Germany. <SEP> Oru Yugasandhya is a 1986 Indian Malayalam- language film, directed by Madhu and produced by P.
