I highly recommend this film for a more personal account of those POW's that were forced to build The Bridge on the River Kwai.

To End All Wars
I just finished this film so I might still be a bit moved from the emotions that it brought up. Though I am a theology student I cannot stand "Christian" films. I find them over-preachy and just generally bad films. I do not think this film is placed in that genre but there certainly is a message of forgiveness stemming from Christian protagonists. One of the great things about the way this film brought forward the Christian message was in conjunction with other forms of education. The prisoners studied Plato's Republic (probably one of the best books to have in that situation), music and Shakespeare.
