Spoiler-Free Synopsis
Read MoreCollapse
Jean Renoir's Oscar-nominated classic Wwi film is set in the Pow camps, with Pierre Fresnay as the captured French flyer and Erich Von Stroheim as first his victor, later his gaoler, two aristocrats who recognise their world is being ground down in the war. The dramatic tension comes from the escape plans of the French airmen (including Jean Gabin) but the grand illusion is the belief that after the war, the old order will remain. In French/German/English with subtitles.
