La notte dell’aquila (1976) in streaming su altadefinizione Liberato Mussolini dal Gran Sasso, Hitler si propone un progetto ancora più ambizioso: uccidere il primo ministro britannico Winston Churchill. Alcuni uomini vengono selezionati per l'impresa e paracadutati in Inghilterra. Scoperti, sono decimati e i superstiti si disperdono, ma uno di loro tenta egualmente di scovare l'uomo politico.
Ispirato a un bestseller di Jack Higgins, il film si regge grazie a una narrazione serrata, e a personaggi ben tratteggiati.
