Mustanaamio7's Movie Diary - Year 2010 (649 movies items)

"25.11. 2010 Billy Wilder was so successfull that he was allowed to direct pretty much any kind of movies he wanted.

"A great WW II movie with an "escape from prison" flair, and a bit of stalag espionage thrown in for good measure. An excellent production from Billy Wilder (one of my favorite directors/writers of film from this time) & stars William Holden, perfectly cast in a role as an indifferent, advantageous prisoner of war trying his best to make the most of his limited situation & at the same time, keep his nose out of the inevitable trouble that usually results when one goes about not choosing sides"

"Erinomainen leffa Wilderiltä jälleen, William Holden tekee loistavan roolisuorituksen samoin muut näyttelijät, ohjaus on erinomaista ja juonikin on hyvä."
