Overall, Stalag 17 made its mark on film history with its introduction of the popular audience to the POW subgenre of war films, giving us iconic characters and a fun story as it earned a spot among the greats.
The characters of David, Linus, and Sabrina, and their romantic love triangle as portrayed skillfully by Holden, Bogart, and Hepburn have turned Sabrina from a classic rom-com into a true all-time great.
