Audience Member One of the best black and white films I've ever seen. This woman is amazing and is a true hero. This story of her time as a British agent during the second world war is an amazing and moving tale. For once we have a story from the moviemakers that is true to life. Perhaps some in Hollywood today can learn something from this. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Audience Member Remarkable personal story from the war, well acted with plenty of drama and feeling. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Read all reviews
