29th November – The Great Escaper (2023)

1h 36m Drama
Stars: Michael Caine, Glenda Jackson


Based on a true story that made national news about pensioner Bernard Jordan who in 2014, absconded from his care home in Hove, Sussex UK to attend an event in France marking the 70th anniversary of the D-Day landings. After the local Police were notified the care home got a call that evening to say Mr Jordan had been found safe and well in France. He returned a few days later having made his way to the event.

Critics Reviews: “A moving and surprisingly nuanced drama offering far more than flag-waving nostalgia. Superb performances from Michael Caine and Glenda Jackson.” – Lou Thomas, Empire Magazine
“Two wonderful performances have transformed this patriotic true story into a touching romance.” – Andy Lea, Daily Express

Note: Bernard sadly passed away in January 2015
