Default Rescue Dawn

Has anyone seen this movie? It opened in a very small release area, only large market areas at the beginning of July.

It is based on a true story about a Navy Fighter pilot (Dieter Dengler) shot down over Laos and his ensuing captivity and escape. I did a little research on Dieter and his background is extremely interesting (German descent, father alledgedly in the Nazi Party during WWII, how he ventured to the USA, worked in the Air Force, etc.) There is also a documentary about this pilot, which I believe can be found on NetFlix?
