Description:

An archetypal prison escape movie, generally regarded as Jean Renoir's most popular film of the thirties and one which, although is often seen as a humane and pacifist indictment of war, offers an ambiguous perspective on class differences. Set in a WWI German prisoner-of-war camp, three French soldiers, the working-class Marechal (Jean Gabin), the middle-class Jew Rosenthal (Marcel Dalio) and the aristocrat senior officer Boieldieu (Pierre Fresnay), are held prisoner by Commandant Von Rauffenstein (Erich von Stroheim). The film shows how a bond of sympathy exists more between the German Commandant and the senior French officer than between the three Frenchman of different classes. Even though Boieldieu sacrifices himself for the two others to escape, the film makes no attempt to conceal what they are returning to once their role as war-heroes is over.
