iIt's a little known fact that WWII was won by Jack Hawkins and Marion Morrison.?

What a great movie? Why can't they make movies like this anymore? Rather than special effects, CGI, this depended on plot and quality acting. (although acting styles have changed considerably over the years)
Why on earth would anyone want to watch Survival, or My Snottiest Bride or whatever reality trash we are inundated with?
Turn off the TV and turn on the computer.?

The selfless sacrifice made by the heroes of world war 2 will not be forgotten.?

A cracking film, all the more remarkable because it’s based on a true story. Jack Hawkins gives a great performance. Sadly missed. RIP Jack thank you for the pleasure your acting talent brought my generation over many films.?

Can't imagine what it was like to be an agent in an occupied country, living with a permanent knot in your stomach.  I had one just watching this excellent film.  Thanks for the upload.?

Yet ANOTHER Sterling Performance by the justifiably "venerated" Jack Hawkins.... The added casting of Felix Aylmer, Alexander Knox and cameo by Michael Caine was a particular delight, too!! I loved Hawkins' portrayal as the neurotic Reverend in ZULU (1964), whereas this engaging "2-headed" film successfully elaborated on the Reich circumstances that led up the to their defeat in the Arden / Baston, hence largely the end of the war, which was well-characterized in the goooood 1965 film, too,  "The Battle Of The Bulge". THX Choco!!?

An excellent and tense drama; many thanks for sharing.?

In the beginning of the movie when I saw Jack Hawkins playing a Nazi German officer, I immediately thought....Nah, this is ridiculous, this is Jack Hawkins..Mr. British himself...trying to play a German officer...???  But I soon saw what was going on...thank goodness..LOL..!! After watching this movie, I looked up Colonel A.P. Scotland ( the Jack Hawkins character ), and read about his life. There is a slight difference between this movie and the real life of this man, but I won't say anything here...look it up yourself. Still, I always enjoy watching any movie with Jack Hawkins.?

Jack Hawkins looks like David Irving God bless his heart?

Now, you know why it's a Turner Classic Movie.?

I guess we should thank Dubjax!!!!!!!?

Well Done WW2 British War Flick.  Worth the watch.?

Excellent film with good actors especially with Jack Hawkins one of the best British actors.?

He should have stuck the solider under the back wheels of the Kubelwagen, he'd have got away quicker... #eyesright?

Spoiler




the torture scene must have been very graphic for it's time.?

FANTASTIC !   Suspense, Great FILM.?

What a brilliant film and an interesting insight into history.
Elstree at it's BEST.
Rest in Peace Jack Hawkins?

Super. I always enjoy Hawkins, and Gia Scala was one of the most beautiful women in movies.?

JH gives a great performance, as usual. I don't know any other film where he is cast against type, like this one. Thanks for the upload Hynu !!?

This was made in 1958! Surely they could have found German actors to play German characters. German officers with British accents seems all wrong.?

As a child I was captivated by Jack Hawkins's distinctive voice. Later I thought how cruel it was that he should have his larynx removed due to throat cancer.?

great psychological insight to compliment excellent dialog and truly believable story?

EXCELLENT SPY MOVIE. REPLETE WITH INTRIGUE ENOUGH TO KEEP THE VIEWER GLUED TO THE SCREEN TILL THE VERY END, AND CRAVING FOR MORE.?

Was wondering if British folks resented having their own play German Nazis with British accents no less....?

Excellent British produced war film.

Well done!?

the night of the long knives?

what is a SPY?-simply a crook in a so called patriotic uniform, only to milk their own government via lobbying deals done with defence contracts?

SOMEDAY MY HEART WILL FIND YOU, I KNOW IT'S TRUE, BLESSINGS.?

Outstanding!! Captivating!!!   first time viewing  thank you!!  A Real Movie!!!!!!!!?

My favourite Jack Hawkins film ....The Cruel Sea.... i think so far my viewing of this film must be over 100times.?

Excellent! Thanks for sharing?

the opening rally scenes sound like the blackadder theme?

This movie's scriptwriter has never read any historical record of WWII.?

The real footage and the staged events are almost indestinguishable...what a time capsule of the most dramatic event of the 20th Century..the fall of Berlin 1945!?

I got this  Thank you?

Great film, superbly acted. Thank you for uploading.?

A cracking film. Full of suspense. Thank you.?

I can't get used to Germans using a British accent, especially the Fuhrer! I don't think twice hearing Germans using an American accent! lol?

1.08  The orderly serving food is Walter from Nearest & Dearest....Has he been?  Have you been Walter??
