It is a contemporary example of the threat faced by the democracies in 1939. Lessons that need remembering in a populist age.

It's very good movie,great acting especially by Joel Mc.Crea. A thriller in high class by the thriller champion, Alfred Hitchcock
I bought this DVD for hy husband who has alzheimer's when he talked about remembering the film. He was so pleased when I put it on for him and has watched it many times since. The value of this is far more than the monetary value as he enjoys it each time he sees it as though it is for the first time.
A cracking bit of Hitchcock and a splendid example of wartime propaganda. Released at a time when American public opinion was against involvement in a European War we see the innocent all American newspaper man sent over to Europe to get a story, immersed in spies, assassination, kidnapping, attempts on his life, brain washing, and a pretty girl, our hero is up against it pretty badly. The attempt to push him off a church tower and the plane crash sequences are particularly effective examples of the Hitchcock genius. A film of it's time but also a jolly good adventure romp with Hitchcocks artistry and vision thrown in.
