Trivia / The Great Escapists

• Enforced Method Acting: While the situation and story is obviously scripted, there was no cheating when it came to the technology and engineering.

Except the gyrocopter, which very obviously was a commercially built machine, with a 4-cylinder engine, full avionics, and a precision-machined rotor head.
