DVD Description

Brian Keith leads an acclaimed international cast in this poignant and powerful WWII drama fraught with action, suspense and the haunting reality of war. Keith stars as Captain Jack Connor, a fast-talking, hard-drinking, tough-as-nails Irishman assigned to investigate an impending escape by a group of German POWs led by the charismatic Kapitan Schleutter (Helmut Griem). The camp commander (Ian Hendry) has been unable to contain the prisoners but Connor’s brash and unusual approach solves the problem … for a while. In a race against time – and with growing animosity from the commander – Connor surpasses even his own previous unorthodox methods when he devises a scheme so daring that it will either make him a hero … or prove to be the most fatal mistake of his career.

4.0 out of 5 stars The Great Escape for Germans, 15 Nov 2008
By Johnnybluetime - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)      
This isn't bad at all.Especially given that's it's a WWII film made in 1970, well past the peak period for movies like this.It's basically The Great Escape but with Germans escaping rather than Allied prisoners.Brian Keith and his toupee aren't bad,Ian Hendry plays a grumpy and ineffectual camp commander and although the germans are nazi schweinhund the intelligent script still manages to make the viewer sympathise with them to some extent.It's nice to see all the usual prisoner of war malarkey turned on its head.It's the kind of film that blokes can watch countless times on late night tv; well cast with decent actors,some humour,plenty of action,a little bit of pathos,there's always something going on to hold your attention.
