'The Dam Busters' was based on the Paul Brickhill book of the same name and 'Enemy Coast Ahead' by Guy Gibson. It tells the true story of the development of a bouncing bomb and its use by the RAF to destroy strategically important dams in Germany during WW2. It stars Michael Redgrave as Barnes Wallis and Richard Todd as Wing Commander Guy Gibson and was directed by Michael Anderson. The film was made in 1955 in b&w.
