The McKenzie Break (1970)

Plot: In the closing days of World War II, German prisoners riot in a POW Camp in Scotland. Fearful of a mass escape attempt, the British Army sends in an unorthodox Irish Captain in hopes of discovering exactly what is going on. The Irishman at once comes into conflict with the senior prisoner, a U-Boat commander, and the two must match wits, knowing that only one will emerge victorious.

Alternative Plot: In a World War II--era internment camp in Scotland, presiding officer Maj. Perry (Ian Hendry) suspects that the imprisoned Nazi soldiers he monitors are plotting a large-scale prison break. But after Perry fails to figure things out himself, eccentric Irishman Capt. Connor (Brian Keith) is brought in to do some detective work. Before long Connor traces the plan back to the German Capt. Schlueter (Helmut Griem), leading to a man-to-man battle of wills and intellects.
