It’s near impossible for a movie of this scope to include everything that occurred in the historical event, so the concentration is focused upon the main characters, and those characters were superbly played by McQueen, Garner, Attenborough, Bronson, etc... watching the movie again, scenes in the The POW camp unfold like a stage play, and not until the breakout do we get a feel for the magnitude of their escape, and what the escapees were up against once they were trying to flee the scene, and make it to a neutral country.

This movie has aged so well, and was so much better than other similar efforts, and is so much better acted than current hero-hunk vehicles, that it's no wonder it qualifies as a pure classic.
2001: A Space Odyssey is a 1968 British-American epic science fiction film produced and directed by Stanley Kubrick.The screenplay was written by Kubrick and Arthur C. Clarke, and was inspired by Clarke's 1951 short story "The Sentinel" and other short stories by Clarke.A novel released after the film's premiere was in part written concurrently with the screenplay. In antiquity, Homer’s authorship of the Odyssey, along with the Iliad, was not widely questioned, but contemporary scholarship predominately assumes the poems were composed independently, and as part of a long oral tradition. :) The movie is 3 hours long and split into 2 parts. The other improvement is Odysseus's reuniting with Telemachus and teaching him that anger has a time and place; lashing out with anger is not how a man should behave.

The Odyssey is a 1997 American mythology–adventure television miniseries based on the ancient Greek epic poem by Homer, the Odyssey.Directed by Andrei Konchalovsky, the miniseries aired in two parts beginning on May 18, 1997 on NBC.It was filmed in Malta, Turkey, parts of England, and many other places around the Mediterranean, where the story takes place. It's supposed to be based on true events, niot sure how much is factual but it makes terrific viewing.
The effects were understandably not-so-good. I also loved the bond between him & his son, Telemachus. Not everything in this made-for-TV movie is accurate for the story of The Odyssey, but overall it's a decent version.
But, I don't really think it's a must-see. Prime members enjoy FREE Delivery and exclusive access to music, movies, TV shows, original audio series, and Kindle books. | Rating: 2/5 Cinemark

Shame, as when they screen it on telly it always looks fine.
This saves Telemachus in a fight with Antinous and allows Telemachus to later spear Antinous in the gut, whereas in the epic poem, Odysseus kills Antinous with an arrow to his throat and there is no father-son bonding to speak of.
The list of stars is powerful, like expendables cast except everyone here had acting in their blood, an odd comparison i know.If you have not seen, please watch it.
American Steve McQueen, Oh my word, just Great, but the storyline does not follow the true goings
Wisconsin.
The acting and effects are very dated and look like a movie from the 60's rather than the 90's.
