Synopsis:
In 1943, the Germans opened Stalag Luft North, a maximum security prisoner - of - war camp, designed to hold even the craftiest escape artists.

In doing so, however, the Nazis unwittingly assembled the finest escape team in military history - brilliantly portrayed here by Steve Mc Queen, James Garner, Charles Bronson and James Coburn - who worked on what became the largest prison breakout ever attempted. One of the most ingenious and suspenseful adventure films of all time.

The Great Escape is a masterful collaboration between director John Sturges, screenwriters James Clavell and W.R. Burnett, and composer Elmer Bernstein. Based on a true story, The Great Escape is epic entertainment that ``entertains, captivates, thrills and stirs.``
