I know its now common knowledge that the film wasn't accurate. I remember one of the original escapees explaining this on Blue Peter when I was young and really into the film, which came as a shock.
But, its still a brilliant film and I still get excited watching it 33 years after first seeing it. We used to play German search light on the street in winter and soldiers (plastic and badly painted) till late in the summer in the gardens because of that film.
