What is the name of a color (i.e. not black & white) movie in which
the enemy fabricates a false US Army Base (and equips it with fluent
English speakers & medical staff) to gather intelligence from American
servicemen who have been captured & are tricked into thinking they
have been returned to the USA so it will be safe for them to speak.
This might be a made-for-tv movie, I do not remember precisely.

The 1989 made-for-television film "Breaking Point" (which is in color)
has a plot that is just as you've described.

Here's a brief review of "Breaking Point":

This is it - thank you very much

I am glad to have been able to help you identify your movie as
"Breaking Point." I remember this film quite well. It was made for
television, and was a remake of one of my favorite theatrical movies,
"36 Hours." Since you said that the movie you wanted was in color, and
"36 Hours" was in black-and-white, that narrowed things down.

"Breaking Point...

 Corbin Bernsen, Joanna Pacula, John Glover, David Marshall
 directed by Peter Markle

An American major is abducted by Nazi agents. He is debriefed,
tortured and brainwashed into believing the war is over and he has
been in an American military hospital for two years."

Rotten Tomatoes: Breaking Point

"A fascinating look into the lengths Nazi Germany tried to go in order
to gain information. John Glover is superb in his role as Nazi German
Psychologist/Torturer as he tries to convince Corben Bernsen's
character that the war is over and to pull whatever information he can
out of him."

If you're interested in purchasing a tape of "Breaking Point," Amazon
(linked above) offers a selection of used VHS tapes. Another good

It should be noted that there is at least one other film called
"Breaking Point." The other one stars Gary Busey, and its plot is
totally unrelated.
