THE HILL 1 1965

Uploaded by Endeavour121 on Aug 28, 2010
At a British military prison in North Africa during World War II, convicted British soldiers face harsh conditions and an even harsher staff. For Trooper Joe Roberts - reduced in rank from Sergeant Major and imprisoned for striking an officer - the going is particularly difficult. Sharing a cell with four other men, they are under the command of Staff Sergeant Williams, a particularly cruel task master who takes pleasure in imposing harsh punishment especially making the men run up and down the "hill" until they collapse from heat exhaustion. No matter the excesses, the prison Sergeant Major will always back up his men. When one of the prisoners dies however, there is an opportunity to expose Williams' for what he is.

@Spraycando An ANZAC back then would probably frag such an Sargent Major. I love badasses like them though!

TEN OUT OF TEN

Roberts (Connery) has a great line later in this film, referring to the King's Rules and Regulations, ie "The Book". "But Queen Victoria's DEAD! It's outa date!!!" That was the main point of the film I thought. EXCELLENT movie, thanks for posting it!

Sean Connery aged so fast. He was just 34 during this film, but he looked much older.

They must have had a hell of a long crane for that opening shot!

My late Dad who served during the Suez Crisis told me to watch this and then explained that this type of behaviour was "normal"-typical British Army. Drill polish blanco & pointless exercise.The point being that if you thought something was impossible the British Army would prove otherwise.You would learn the hard way but be proved wrong. One Sargeant Major was even trying to grow flowers in the sand around a tent. Hard & tough fuckers tho. Although he said they were mad he had respect for them.
