Alain E @AlainE Dec 8, 2025 The beginning looks totally amateurish. The Nazis arrest a spy in Holland and instead of torturing or killing him, they offer him a brandy and suggest that he should go to England as a double agent! Then, some resistance fighters attack the headquarters of German officers (who speak perfect English) and there is a gunfight that looks like it was choreographed by a five year old. They recruited megastars for this nonsense! See more Steve D @RT35616104 Jun 26, 2023 Strongly acted and really intense. See more Jan 1, 2018 Excellent movie with exciting plot twists. Recommended.

The Netherlands and British countrysides are beautifully photographed in Eastman-color. The action isn't too bad either. Colonel Pieter Deventer (Clark Gable) influences Holland socialite, Carla Van Oven (Lana Turner) to spy on the Nazis for Britain and Dutch Intelligence. Pieter trains Carla and their bond slowly develops into a love affair. He introduces her to the very gallant, and successful resistance leader (Victor Mature) known only as "The Scarf". Although a very effective resistance fighter, the Scarf is very flamboyant and is also very affectionate to his mother. Is there some kind of weird gay angle being portrayed here? I don't know, but Victor Mature sort of steals the show here. Unfortunately, as soon as Carla becomes their liaison, the resistance starts getting caught more and more as if someone is informing the Nazis of their plans. All three characters are under suspicion, but which one could it be? See more Jun 13, 2010 Plodding through WWII with Dutchmen(!) Clark Gable & Victor Mature. See more Read all reviews
