On this day in 1953, PARAMOUNT PICTURES released the WWII classic, STALAG 17. A dark comedy set in a German concentration camp, the film starred WILLIAM HOLDEN, DON TAYLOR, OTTO PREMINGER, PETER GRAVES, ROBERT STRAUSS and HARVEY LEMBECK. Comparisons to TV’s HOGAN’S HEROS are probably inevitable but…don’t…please…don’t be that guy.
