If you loved The Magnificent Seven, try The Great Escape
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by John Sturges, and they sit in Adventure territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Magnificent Seven, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What The Great Escape is
Stalag Luft III, spring 1944, barbed wire. Allied prisoners tunnel, forge, and plot, driven by a single goal. John Sturges brings a clear-eyed sensibility to this war saga.
