IMHO, this is an excellent movie, even though it's quite old (1960s).
It portrays the war how it really was, and it's not infested with that Hollywood crap.
German soldiers, aviators and commanders speak German among themselves, without accent.
It also portrays the chivalry between British and Germans. Very good.
One of the best scenes is when a Polish is shot down and parachutes into an English farm. He is surrounded by English farmers and he replies with his Polish accent: "Good affterrrnoon". He sounded very much like a German!
The Englishman replies: "Good afternoon my ass". The Polish is then arrested!
