Bridge on the River Kwai | Kitulgala | Sri Lanka

[@DavidvanEyck]

A lovely look back at the movie and location. With the accompanying music and terse narration, I think Destination Sri Lanka have produced another great video. It is a pity that the Sri Lankan (Ceylonese) Government of the time did not think it important to preserve more souvenirs from the movie.

My recollection is that the engineers responsible for the design of the bridge for the film were Husband & Co, Consulting Engineers and their name appears in the Credits for the film.

Thank you for that insight.
