I'm looking for the title of a movie about which I have only a vague recollection. The movie involved military personnel running a covert casino hidden in the jungle (WWII era Pacific?) that had a booming business without their superiors knowledge. The film had to have been pre 70's. |

It might be a movie called "Stalag 17". You can see more about Stalag 17 at www.imdb.com Enter Stalag 17 in the search field in the upper left corner of the www.imdb.com web page. |

No, it wasn't "Stalag 17" (which I know well - a great one to boot). The one I'm remembering wasn't a POW film and it was set in a tropical jungle environment. |

Could it have been King Rat? http://www.filmjudge.ca/k/kingrat.htm It is set in the South Pacific on a POW island camp. George Segal stars as a private who runs everything in the camp - even the officers and guards start turning to him to get various things. Great flick. I hope this helps. |

Nope. It's not King Rat, either. The military personnel were not POWs. |
