MGM's The Great Escape (1963) [Part 15 Of 16]

[allgoonersaregay]

Fucking German bastards!!

[Pssybart]

The character played by James Coburn was actually a Dutchman named Bram van der Stok, he's considered the most succesful Dutch pilot in WW2. In reality, he fled to Utrecht and was escorted to Spain from there. The character was supposed to be named after him as well but he demanded his name to be changed. Most characters in the film are amalgamations.

[miniveiw]

at 2:39 sounds like the Nazi says I Da Ho (hoe not sure on spelling) #LOL

[EchoBoomer1987]

Kudos to the resistance for pulling a Godfather like hit! XD

[rafale1981]

as a german native speaker i hate to say, that their accent was atrocious ;-)

[konrad4212]

@rafale1981 yes you re right, I try to learn german, I like it and it sounds way better than what I heard so far in the ww2 movies. I dunno if it really is the way the soldiers spoke or if they over do it.... greetings from France.

[WTCTribute]

8:15-8:30

That's where Star Wars got its "These aren't the droids you're looking for" >:D

Classic movie. Shame we'll never see another one. All the modern movies are CGI filled crap. And damnit Mac! You shouldn't have fallen for that trick.

[ClaymanSheldon]

0:58 - 3:02 is epic

[jakethemistake19]

lol 5:02 break out the champagne

[jakethemistake19]

Why shoot Hendly on sight? The germans don't know if he is a hostile, let alone have a gun.

[jakethemistake19]

I mean Blithe

[ClaymanSheldon]

Because there Nazis., there trained to do minimum thinking

[psp785]

lmao how many nazis were after him

[mickety2001]

What dirty rotten scum those soldiers must have been for pulling the trigger and murdering the young airmen.....I suppose most of them would have been under 25?

[easygroove]

what do you think a soldiers job is?

yeah men from every country....

[Gheorgyi]

@mickety2001 Just rremermber this is a MOVIE... Hollywood... Bloody American... Remember Camp Sumter...Gheorghyi

[JoelandtheBots]

6:23 Oh great, MacDonald, now poor Ashley-Pitt's sacrifice is all for nothing. He should have just saved himself and left them to get captured, since all he did was delay the inevitable.

[ClaymanSheldon]

Its ironic forshadowing, if you remember back at the camp he chews someone else out for using english

[mryogurt892]

your arms.... UP

[brownarb]

Good luck...

[Zuchov112]

could someone explain to me why the germans let the 2 english(from the train) guys go after they admitted from escaping.

[5StarGeneralXenoCO]

What you talking about? What I want to know is why didn't they shoot Hendley or for wearing civilian clothes? Let alone not even put him in the cooler?

[yckss17]

in the game i play..steve make it the jump....

[azpatm01]

The Great Escape. Steve McQeen motorcycle scenes,and Buds Great motorcycle jump stunt. Thanks for posting this movie,Sincerely azpatm01

[timboslayer]

When I woke up this morning I thought I'd like to see the French Resistance gun down some Nazis. So I came here.

[klassetompa]

Jeeez....the Nazis are popping up like little Smurfs everywhere.....

[JoelandtheBots]

Where's Gargamel when you need him?

[linebackertwo]

I love this film and when Steve pats the motorbike that nearly carried him to freedom, truly heartbreaking. Hollywood is making all these crap remakes. Remake this classic and let THEM ALL escape.

[kuljeskelija]

But if everybody got away, you would lose those heartbreaking moments. I think this film is so touching, a true masterpiece because it does show that the good guys don't always win.

[SplitIllusionOnline]

Its my fav movie ever but I never get something

y is it no matter how many times Hilts escapes (tries) all they do is send him back to the cooler? where as Roger etc get shot.

Anyone know?

[AppleQuickTipPODCAST]

because he is known as the Cooler Man and all they do is send him to t he cooler - SUBSCRIBE FOR MORE APPLE QUICK TIPS -

[RAxCHxEL]

actually . . hes known as The Cooler King, NOT the Cooler Man. Hilts only gets sent to the cooler because he, unlike bartlett isnt the leader of a organization who plans major escapes.

[klassetompa]

You just don´t shoot Steve McQueen... ;)

[tomloft2000]

it must just be Hollywood.there were no Americans in the real escape,so the filmmakers can basically do anything with his character that they want.

[michaelmoval]

momentum at 1:58

[happysmilyfasegrl]

momentum all over the place

[michaelmoval]

0:16 was so sad

[happysmilyfasegrl]

the whole MOVIE was sad.

[DevilzRock97]

i hate the part where blithe gets shot : (

[DevilzRock97]

god Mcdonald such a dumbass

[happysmilyfasegrl]

which one's that?

[kbs1138]

the one that was lecturing of the other prisoners earlier in the movie not to be caught by the old trick of the Germans using English and then was caught by a more sophisticated version of the same trick here, "good luck".

[EmpressDR]

I love the part where Steve McQueen, caught by barbed wire, and made to give up, pats his '"trusty steed" ( his "cycle" ) in thank you and goodbye. Real. Steve loves his motorcycles. Really, let's see an upload of "On Any Sunday" with Steve McQueen and Malcom Smith.

[Viewtube3]

Fabulous moment at the bar when SS officers get shot by Resistance whilst James Coburn goes to "answer" the phone. Love his character

[chiyome21]

I like how the people running the bar congratulate themselves by pouring drinks : ) Its amusing the way its portrayed .

[happysmilyfasegrl]

at 8:14 look at the car. it's funny

[Millham1]

one of the best bits in the film......trust them to meet a German that spoke 3 languages !

[happysmilyfasegrl]

how is that the BEST?

[GalvaWalken8]

Good luck... damn it, sneaky Germans!

[ITerenceI]

soooo close!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[kirbycol3]

" Aaaaaaaah Heir Baaaart-lett!!! And Heir MacDonald! How we are together, again" !

Pure evil by this Gestapo goon....

[7beers]

I didn't know Phil Collins was in this movie.

[7beers]

Good luck. Thank you!

[theygotwhattheydeser]

does anybody know what the ss officer says in german at about 09:36?

[underlever1]

he says ''ausgezeichnet'' which means excellent.

in the alley he says halt, stand still, hands up, your english.....Bartlett replies very calmly ''Was soll dass'' What's all this.....

going on to say..you threaten me with a pistole, english, take the pistol away....the ss gy then says surprised, ach your german...Bartlett replies understandably...

the ss guy says excuse us, good, go on..

an amazing scene...

I stayed in germany for 20 years, am now back in Scotland............

[frankfryderzweite]

"Trois pernods" (three pernods) - that's what they ordered!

[Yngwie811]

03:28 what did they order???

03:28 what did they order???

03:28 what did they order???

[Yngwie811]

thank

[underlever1]

God Rest their souls....

We will remember them.......

[kendofiend]

fell for it!

[sunnymarky]

Nice To know that the Filthy German Facists who murdered and ordered the murder of the 50 POWS were hanged after the war

[sunnymarky]

Cant Believe Gordon jackson Fell for "Good Luck"

[7beers]

Thank you!

[goldyn12345]

i feel so sorry for henley and colin,what are the chances of their plane running out of fuel just short of switzerland? and hilts? he was right at the german swiss border.

[mymw]

06:22. retard

[tenkuunokage]

BRILLIANT rofl Ithought 6:22 wtf? then 2 sec after 6:22 'thank you!' +1 rofl! poor guys though...

[trainboy414]

im 15 and a guy but you can beat the classics

[victoria81694]

Cool.

[mymw]

you may be skinny and have lots of friends, but you cant spell 'loser'

[ClassicMovieFanatic]

Cool.

[trinnhedy]

too much of a gentleman . . .

[GrizzliPL]

9:11 This nazi looks like john travolta (or his father):D

[YamatoTitanic]

Sad that collin had to die. He should have not only lived but got to safty.

[TheGreatEscapeMovie]

Ya I know but I felt bad that I never cried in that movie... I felt like I should have. When Colin died that was the closest I ever came to cry in this movie. Well anyway I know this is a little silly

[lovesclassiccars]

@TheGreatEscapeMovie I've felt that way too.

[victoria81694]

You guys will probably believe me, but I'm a normal 13 year old girl who is obbsessed with old movies! I saw my first when I was 4, but anyway, The Great Escape is my favorite movie out of all of them. Ever since my grandpa showed me it, I've been a huge McQueen fan like he is. But it's so annoying because none of my friends in my 8th grade class know what The Great Escape or who Steve McQueen is. I feel weird sometimes lamo. What other 13 year old girls are like huge fans of Steve McQueen? :]

[mikemosocw]

shut the fuck up you spoiled, pretentious little bitch, who gives a fuck how old you are or what films you like.. OK? now fuck off!

[victoria81694]

who the hell is mikemosocw talking to? oh, maybe himself because he's a looser.

[victoria81694]

Ughh...I hate this part I'm always yelling at the T.v, "Mac, don't say thank you, please!" I loved him too...to bad he dies. :[

[BlitzFalke]

OMG! i know! and he's the one who was teaching the other POWs about how they can't say anything in english unless they wanna be captured! jeez, ironic...

[Xun101]

Everytime i watch that i hope he does not say good luck.
