Exclusive"Stalag 17" (1953): First War Movie

There’s no denying the fact that men love war movies. However, not all military films focus on combat. Others focus on less recognized battles, where equally brave soldiers and civilians fought. For instance, “Stalag 17” (1953) tells the story of American soldiers in a German prison camp during World War II. Adapted from a hit play written by real prisoners of war, the plot takes place during a few days around Christmas when the men in one barrack discover that a spy is among them. With only credited male characters, this film stars William Holden and Don Taylor, leading a cast of quirky characters. It was directed by Billy Wilder, who is best known for making comedies, and his witty humor can be seen amid the drama. This is a real man’s picture, but women can also appreciate the dramatic acting and inspiring bravery it depicts.
