I have just noticed I said "first WW2 movie that didn't invole yanks" , I meant to add that it is the only WW2 film I HAVE SEEN without yanks. Another point in fact, (although I don't want to stray to far from the original subject) is that I love the movie The Great Escape. My favourite character is the one played by Steve McQueen "the cooler king" , however in reality there were no american airman at that stalag luft,they were all R.A.F. (including polish,french, and other nations that flew for the R.A.F.)or commonwealth aircrews, and most of the events depicted did not take place. I just wanted to correct my mistake and further my point that very few hollywood films about WW2 can be taken seriously, they are quite simply made for entertainment purposes.
