SINOPSIS
The nondescript title hides a really tense suspense tale from talented cult director Jacques Tourneur, in his film noir period before he hit his swashbuckling stride with The Flame and the Arrow and Anne of the Indies. Paul Lukas plays a suave German democrat who's kidnapped by an underground group of Nazis opposed to the unification of their country. Merle Oberon and the impressive Robert Ryan star as the fellow travellers who become involved in the plot. The Nazis are strictly clichéd, but the view of postwar Germany rings very true and Tourneur keeps up the tension throughout.
