The Wooden Horse (sh. Drveni konj) je britanski crno-bijeli ratni film snimljen 1950. godine u režiji Jacka Leeja. Predstavlja adaptaciju istoimene knjige Erica Williamsa, inspirirane vlastitim bijegom iz njemačkog zarobljeničkog logora Stalag Luft III za vrijeme Drugog svjetskog rata. Iako su u filmu likovima promijenena imena, film se prilično vjerno držao stvarnih događaja. Snimljen je sa niskim budžetom te su veliki dio glumačke postave činili amateri. Usprkos toga je postigao za tadašnje standarde solidan komercijalni uspjeh.

Godine 1963. je u hollywoodskoj produkciji snimljen mnogo raskošniji i danas poznatiji film Veliki bijeg, posvećen kasnijem i daleko spektakularnijem bijegu iz istog logora.
