Wow. That was really cool. For the most part, we in the west, are treated to WWI and WWII POW films like La Grand Illusion, Stalag 17 and the Great Escape (not to mention Hogans Heroes!) and they are always, with fair reason, from the point of view of the Allies in German POW camps.
I think this would make an awesome setting for a film. German POW captured by the Brits, imprisoned in the north of England. At first he finds it difficult to adjust but eventually while working in the town falls in love with a local girl. The conflict arises when some of his more patriotic fellow prisoners want to escape...
It would, at the very least, make a good BBC drama.
Thanks for showing me this JWoody.
