Condition: Disc Has One Minor Scratch.
In 1943, the Germans opened Stalag Luft North, a maximum security prisoner-of-war camp, designed to hold even the crafiest escape artists. In doing so, however, the Nazis unwitting y assembled the finest escape team in military history - brillianty portrayed here by Steve McQueen, 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 (The Magnificent Seven, screenwriters Jamies Clavell ("Shogun) and W.R. Burnett (Little Caesar), and composer Elmer Bernstein. Based on a true story, The Great Escape is epic entertainment that "entertains, captivates, thrills and stirs" (Variety).
