Bruce Willis plays the patriotic Col. William A. McNamara in the under-rated World War Two POW movie, Hart's War (2002). Also starring in this movie are Colin Farrel as Lieutenant Hart and Romanian actor, Marcel Lures who plays the Stalag Kommandant. In this scene, McNamara who has just overseen the escape of a large group of prisoners, returns to the prison camp, disguised in the uniform of a high-ranking German officer. While the prisoners blow up the nearby munitions factory - vital to the German war effort, McNamara sacrifices his opportunity to escape back behind the lines, and instead takes the place of Lt. Hart who is about to be executed.
