With the UEFA European Football Championship (the Euros) starting this week we thought what better time to tackle a curious John Huston film staring no less than Michael Caine, Sylvester Stallone, Pele and half of the Ipswich Town football club! It is of course 'Escape To Victory', a film which mixes football with a POW escape movie! We are joined by Ipswich Town fan and host of the excellent WW2TV, Paul Woodage, who brings his expert Ipswich Town knowledge to help us breakdown this unconventional war film!Be sure to follow us on Twitter @FightingOnFilm and check out our new website www.fightingonfilm.comThanks for listening!
