The Hill is one of my favourite films. Excellent British cast playing strong roles of equally strong characters. One of Sidney Lumet's best films. Powerful gritty and moving drama set in a WWII military prison in North Africa, exposing the brutality and Victorian rules and attitudes still prevalent in the military penal system during the 1940s. A real man's film!

This a very powerful film from the opening flying sequence of the enormous sand Hill to the damaged & overbearing characters in the film. The sheer scale of the hill is enough to induce a heart attack & you do feel sorry for the actors having to climb it. It is truly worth watching for an insight into what happened to the deserters & criminals withing the Army. Grim but a must watch.

Loved it. Tough, Gritty. Great cast. Especially Connery. Will stay with you long after you've watched it.
