The Blockhouse

A rarely seen gem from Peter Sellers' later film career, this harrowing drama is based on Jean-Paul Clébert's novel "Le Blockhaus" (itself loosely inspired by a true story) and follows a group of Allied captives in World War II who become trapped in an underground bunker following the Normandy invasion. They're at least fortunate enough to have a stockpile of supplies, but as years go by, hope of a rescue dwindles. With Charles Aznavour, Peter Vaughan, Jeremy Kemp. 92 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: English. Region Free
