The Great Escape

This star-laden real-life tale of teamwork and derring-do is a trifle flabby at nearly three hours, but there is no denying that this is one of the best loved of all Second World War films.

i recently watched lawrence of arabia and although that was a great film, its DRAAAAAGGED. i was worried this would be the same yet the 2.5 hours FLEW BY! a classic for a reason and an incredible story. damn i love a 60s film 9/10

i really loved the themes in this. persevering and resisting tyranny by keeping in touch with the whimsical parts of yourself. the importance of community and making sacrifices for the good of others less fortunate than you. our duty to be non-compliant, especially when they try to make you as miserable and hopeless as they are. overall really beautiful and powerful film, though i was not emotionally prepared for the ending
