      Ken R Surprisingly well-produced British film has a superior story and performances with strikingly good- looking Oswald Morris (Guns of Navarone) cinematography. Director Compton Bennett proves he is well up to the task of turning out a superior movie and his talented cast never let him down. Striking German actress Maria Schell gives a thoughtful turn as Nicole, a young girl livening in war-torn Brussels whose family home is requisitioned to provide a residence for a top-ranking German Colonel – bringing unavoidable human complications to all concerned. Marius Goring is perfect as the German. Unfortunately, the wartime themes explored by this picture were considered controversial at the time of its initial release so was not as well-received as it deserved to be - but plays well today. The re-mastered Network/Studio Canal DVD offers bright clear images and good sound – recommended for lovers of quality British drama.
