They just turn up in films like this.
I loved this film. The combination of these great old stars and charecter actors having a lark in a war film. Fantastic.
The trick with this film is not to take it too seriously.
Just sit back and release your grip on reality for a couple of hours.
Pity we don't get more films like this today.
