One of the funniest "dramas" ever made -- in its own way. Heston's character jeopardises everybody's lives by leading a POW insurgence against a commandant who wants Heston's orchestra to perform a concert. One scene that should not be missed -- Heston's character tries to steal some Victor-Laszlo-esque magic to stir the consciences of his orchestra by belting out the star-spangled banner on a saxophone! Not quite La Marseillaise but just as "classic" in its own way. You just can't make this stuff up. Anyway, young Leslie Nielsen is very cute in it.
