5.0 out of 5 stars A wonderful TRUE film!, 28 April 2007
By "Smith" Reader (West Midlands United Kingdom) - See all my reviews

Gosh the review on for the wooden Horse says that it is based on story book! Nothing coukd be further from the truth.

The Wooden Horse is an amazing true story, one that needs to be known as true. A wonderful film full of action and realism. Plus great acting!

5.0 out of 5 stars Not a novel, 5 Jan 2007
By England "England Forever" (Southampton, England) - See all my reviews
The Amazon reviewer calls the Eric Wiliams book 'The Wooden Horse' a novel. Wrong! This escape from Stalag Luft 3 (later the setting for the Great Escape) is a true story. The escape by 3 British officers was made by means of tunnelling under a vaulting horse.
For those who wish to read the story I recommend 'The Wooden Horse' by Eric Williams or in my opinion the better account 'Stolen Journey' by Oliver Philpot. The later is an excellent read. I also recommend this film. Well made and accurate.
