A wonderful spy thriller, has Margaret Lockwood as Anna
Bomasch, the daughter of a Czech scientist, who is whisked off to England for safety, when the
Germans invade. Lockwood is imprisoned in a concentration
camp. Later she meets up with Karl Marsen (Paul Henreid ) and
they engineer an escape together and meet up with her father in
England. When the Germans recapture them, Gus Bennett (Rex
Harrison a M.I.5. agent) is assigned to bring them back. Lockwood and Harrison spark off each other wonderfully well, and
in a small role is Irene Handl, but the film is almost stolen by Basil
Radford, and Naunton Wayne, as the two cricket loving Englishmen, who were such a big hit in Hitchcock's Lady
Vanishes'. After seeing this film for the umpteenth time, it is every bit as good
as Lady Vanishes' and well worth recommending.
