THE HEROES OF TELEMARK – Decoded!

THE HEROES OF TELEMARK – Decoding a movie about real World War II heroes

In this episode, Dan and Tom decode a movie about some real World War II heroes, namely, the movie THE HEROES OF TELEMARK. This movie stars Kirk Douglas, Richard Harris, Ulla Jacobson, and Michael Redgrave. Plus, many supporting actors in this movie have appeared in other spy movies. We call some of those out for you

THE HEROES OF TELEMARK is a dramatization of some real operations from World War II. These operations were:

  • Operation Grouse

  • Operation Freshman

  • Operation Gunnerside

  • And the sinking of the Norwegian ferry Hydro.

These operations all focused on the Allies' attempts at keeping the Germans from getting "Heavy Water". Heavy Water was used in the process of creating an atomic bomb. The Allies had to stop or slow down the Germans so that the Allies could create the bomb first.

We decode this movie against the backdrop of the real missions, while diving into what "Heavy Water" is and where it comes from.
