The Great Escape

This is a true story from World War II. This movie of 1963 is a heart-touching film. It is about the PoW captives in a german camp who where torchered and starved in the prison. It was one of the greatest mass escape attempts so far which happened. We could learn, how under limitation of resource, the american war prisoners used the abilities to engineer the mining of a tunnel as an escape route out of their camp and from their trying to escape from germany to their home country. This movie teaches on how to view and handle situations. Confidence and courage on reality. A persistance and constant will to keep the efforts going. Steve McQueen, wonderfully played his role, and the only one who knows what isolation means and how was the feeling when he almost fell on the borders of swizzerland, yet returned as captive to the prison camp. This is a MUST SEE movie.
