The battlefield: a stadium in occupied Paris. The armies: German all-stars vs. ragtag Allied POWs. The objective: demonstrate another "proof" of Aryan superiority, but thanks to some fine football, unlikely goalkeeping and acting worthy of a red card the lads do us proud, before attempting to leg it over the fence and back to blighty. An entertainingly tongue in cheek wartime adventure rather surprisingly from the great John Houston.

THE BLACK STALLION (1979)
CertificationPG Our Rating
Cinema at its most beautifully photographed. This is the tale of a young boy and a wild black stallion shipwrecked on a beach together and who, through mutual dependence, develop a reciprocal relationship of trust. After their rescue the young boy is the only one that can ride the horse in the big race.
