Quality film, especially considering it was made reasonably soon after the war yet the Germans aren't portrayed as evil or anything

The Brits seem to be in a generous mood acknowledging the dashing heroic feats of their black leather jacket wearing fair-haired pilot prisoner.

Good WWII movie about the only German prisoner of war to escape from Britain and back to Germany. The bit where he is trying to steal a Hurricane fighter is nail-biting stuff.

This is a little gem of a film that I caught on TCM the other day. It's based on the true story of Luftwaffe pilot Franz Von Werra, the only German POW to escape from British captivity during World War II. Hardy Kruger plays the young fighter ace with lashings of charm and charisma, so much so that you really find yourself rooting for him after a while, although he is technically the enemy! Even if you don't like war movies you should still enjoy this one, as there's plenty of humour and some genuinely suspenseful moments. Catch it if you can, you won't be disappointed.

...a top-notch suspense thriller, with fine acting from everyone involved but especially from Hardy Kruger, who holds it all together splendidly.
