Audience Member Pretty poor WW2 film. To be honest these early american films have no idea how to make realistic war films. Alan Ladd seems to act as a cool gangster, no attempt by any of the actors playing french or german people to have anything other than an american accent. The British ww2 films of the time are far superior. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Above average WW II espionage thriller. Likeable cast, including Alan Ladd make this. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Read all reviews
