Den Stora Flykten Limited Edition Blu-Ray

Director John Sturges reunites with The Magnificent Seven stars Steve McQueen, James Coburn, and Charles Bronson in this timeless adaptation of Paul Brickhill's World War II memoir about a daring prison break.

Stalag Luft III: an impenetrable camp built to hold the most determined escapees. Under the ruthless vigilance of Nazi guards, a multinational group of prisoners must work together to carry out their daring plan: to break out of the camp and force the Germans to devote precious military resources to recapturing them. But getting past the camp's barbed wire fences and gun towers is only the beginning. Once outside, the escapees must make the dangerous journey to the border, while avoiding the relentless pursuit of their former captors.

The Great Escape is beautifully filmed by Oscar®-winning cinematographer Daniel L. Fapp (West Side Story) and features a rousing, infectiously hummable score by Elmer Bernstein (The Ten Commandments). The Great Escape remains one of Hollywood's most beloved historical action films—a testament to human ingenuity, camaraderie under pressure, and the indomitable spirit.- Limited edition packaging with reversible slipcase featuring original and newly commissioned artwork by Sam Hadley
