Audience Member Good realistic movie about the dirty untold history of the role business played in the Second World War. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Audience Member You can read about what this film is about but it doesn't really capture the weird un-US version of WW2. It mixes German and Soviet takes on the war. The bad guys are all the people in charge of things. The heroes are all working class or pro-union, but in a way that US/western european films about the war never show. Pretty depressing but great to see. It is also really neat to see a paranoid conspiracy film from 1950. It has a nice jab at McCarthy too. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/20/23 Full Review Read all reviews
