* ''Film/TheGreatEscape'': [[FourEyesZeroSoul Preissen]] is a Gestapo officer who is the most evil of the Nazis in the film. Regularly capturing [=POWs=] to be thrown into camps, Preissen is distasteful of Von Luger's comparatively professional, merciful methods, as Preissen prefers a more brutal approach to dealing with prisoners.

[[EvenEvilHasStandards Von Luger himself is disgusted by this action]], and it is implied Preissen has him executed for his "soft touch" soon after the film's end.
