ComingSoon.net has your exclusive first look at a new clip from writer/director Werner Herzog's , opening July 4 and starring Christian Bale ( ) and Steve Zahn. In the annals of history's great escapes there is no other story like that of Dieter Dengler (Bale), the only American to ever break out of a POW camp in the impenetrable Laotian jungle.
After months plotting his getaway from a harrowing prison and a death-defying journey through some of the world's fiercest wilderness, Dengler appeared at his first press conference looking like a dashing movie star and showing neither sentimentality nor bitterness - simply an indomitable will to survive that allowed him to triumph against impossible odds.
