Diese Ausgangssituation nämlich beschäftigt sich mit der Frage, was eigentlich passiert, wenn ein ehemaliger Revolverheld seinen Weg zu Ende beschritten hat? Schon ein Filmklassiker wie 12 Uhr mittags hat sich mit einer ähnlichen ..."

And so it is: a small, slow-gathering vill ..."

"High on the list of best POW movies, King Rat bears some comparison to that compound over by the River Kwai... but this is an entirely more cynical exercise.

Director Bryan Forbes, who adapted James Clavell's novel, follows different POWs through various strands of p ..."

The Wild Blue(Reprint) The Novel of the U.S. Air Force by Walter J. Boyne, Steven L. Thompson Paperback, 628 Pages, Published 1987 by Ivy Books ISBN-13: 978-0-8041-0149-3, ISBN: 0-8041-0149-3
"From Publishers Weekly: This bulky novel about the U.S. Air Force from its creation in 1947 to 1978 was composed, we are told, on the writers' personal computers, a fact possibly responsible, in part, for its undistinguished style and lack of sustained tension.
