Castle Keep is a 1969 American war comedy-drama film combining surrealism with tragic realism. It was directed by Sydney Pollack, and starred Burt Lancaster, Patrick O'Neal, Jean-Pierre Aumont, Bruce Dern and Peter Falk. The film appeared in the summer of 1969, a few months before the premiere of Pollack's smash hit They Shoot Horses, Don't They?

Production

The film's castle scenes were shot in Kamenica Park of Sremska Kamenica, while the street scenes were shot in Podgrađe of Petrovaradin, all in the city of Novi Sad, Yugoslavia (modern day Serbia). Sydney Pollack recalled that Burt Lancaster first wished him to direct the film in 1966; and that the castle, which was made of styrofoam, was inspired by Walt Disney and dreams. It later burned down in a fire.
