Stalag 17

ItemImage

Amazon.com's review of "Stalag 17": Black comedy and suspenseful action inside a German POW camp during World War II--a setting that was later borrowed for the TV sitcom Hogan's Heroes. The great director Billy Wilder adapted the hit stage play, applying his own wicked sense of humor to the apparently bleak subject matter. William Holden plays an antisocial grouse amid a gang of wisecracking though indomitable American prisoners. --Robert Horton

I don't like prison movies either. But this one is a great. One of my personal top 10. Holden is very good, like in so many other movies. Also the German supervisor officer is a funny character (even though a bit exaggerated, I think). And there's another American prisoner, too, that's very funny.
