30 Dec The Great Escape
The Great Escape, WWII Movie starring Steve McQueen
(1963) Based on a book of the same name, this is the amazing story of POW’s who built a series of tunnels in an “escape-proof” German camp.
What a great line-up of stars, but no one can come close to Steve McQueen, the “King of Cool.” It’s worth it just to watch him in action.
To learn more about the actual escape, with interviews of former prisoners who were involved, you can watch The Great Escape: The Untold Story on youtube. Here is Part 1 of 5.
