War movie ever made featuring zero war. The pacified harsh treatment they get in the film could be imagined to be even worse in real life. It wouldn't be that hard either. The drama between the characters and the frail chain of command in the camp makes for riveting watching. It's just a great movie. Sad that like all of the black and white era movies most of the actors are dead and gone, but did they leave their mark with this movie. It may be too homogenized for today's desensitized youth and what not, but it is a great movie.
