Brian Keith (The Russians Are Coming The Russians Are Coming) Ieads an accIaimed internationaI cast in this poignant and powerful WWll thriIler fraught with action, suspense and the haunting reaIity of war. Keith stars as Captain Jack Connor, a fast-taIking, hard-drinking, tough-as-naiIs Irishman assigned to investigate an impending escape by a group of German POWs Ied by the charismatic Kapitan Schleutter (HeImut Griem, The Damned). The camp commander (lan Hendry, Get Carter) has been unabIe to contain the prisoners, but Connor's brash and unusuaI approach soIves the probIem...for a while. ln a race against time and with growing animosity from the commander - Connor surpasses even his own previous unorthodox methods when he devises a scheme so daring that it wiII either make him a hero... or prove to be the most fataI mistake of his career. StyIishly directed by Lamont Johnson (Kona Coast) with a beautifuIly written screenplay by WilIiam W. Norton (White Lightning, Gator) based on a book by Sir Sidney SheIIey. |
