5. "The Great Escape" (1963)

World War II Movie Night has its first bona fide classic with
"The Great Escape," one of the most popular movies ever made.
Steve McQueen leads an ensemble cast as Allies attempt to escape
a German prison camp. A surprisingly fun movie, considering it
portrays a real event that ended with many deaths... Asides
include the connection between coming-of-age and
learning-to-drink.
