I recall seeing this film as a child, and it always made me smile. Oliver Reed is the eponymous WWII POW who has a job at a zoo in Munich looking after "Lucy". Nope, she's not a glamorous blonde - she's an elephant, and quite a stubborn one at that. As the allies close in, it's decided to evacuate "Lucy" to Austria, but when an officer commandeers their train, they decide to walk - the two, with a pair of soldiers as escort and a cook. Their escapades are light hearted adventures with Reed on go…
