Editorial Review:
In an effort to remain neutral, Ireland made a deal to intern any soldier, German or Allied, captured on Irish soil. During a dogfight, Allied pilot Miles Keogh, and German pilot Rudolph von Stegenbek shoot each other down and are captured. The camp commandant tries to keep the peace between these sworn enemies. But, when both men fall in love with Mattie, their hatred becomes personal.
The Brylcreem Boys Reviews:
love those period movies... 
2008-04-02 - This was a very engaging period drama based on some true events which occurred during the war. Although perhaps the movie is a bit fanciful, it presents (with an Irish sense of humor included) a picture of history that is little-known to the American audience. I would definitely watch this again and again. Byrne fans may be a bit disappointed that his role is not greater in the story, but even so, it is very, very good. (Oh, and there are horses in it toooooo!)
Jean`s Amazing Screen debut 
2000-01-28 - I really loved this movie with very strong performances from the lead actors and the debut of dance star Jean Butler is truly fantastic and the dance gig she performs is worth 5 stars on its own and i am suprised Bill Campbell isnt a bigger star that he is, Angus maCfadden showing what a fine and underated actor he is as the German and the dvd is very good as it includes a decomentary of the real life camp of WWII,i highly reccomend this movie if you like real life ar stories as it has everything,action,comedy,romance ,fights etc and includes many excellent performances from UK Tv stars including Joe McGann and John Gordon Sinclair,but for me it is the astounding beauty of Jean Butler`s performance that lights up the screen and makes this movie a must.

2000-01-11 - although there was not much fighting(killing) in this movie, i love it the way they showed more of the relationship between two different sides without actually killing each other. and plus wow that Jean Butler is beautiful, i love her in the riverdance! yeah go Jean go! hehe! good movie, get it! all i can say
Great true to life war story.
1999-09-28 - I've seen this film many times and love it, as a 20year old it just show's that war story's are not just for the old.
See it if you can.
