If you have seen the captioned film and enjoyed it, take the trouble to see "Night Train to Munich"(1940).Filmed 2 years later when Britain was at war, it again stars Margaret Lockwood on a European train this time with Rex Harrison as her co-star.If you have read my synopsis of the captioned film dated 29/9/06, you will note that I am a cricket fan and wanted to see what my two heros, Basil Radford and Naunton Wayne were going to do on the Munich train.They are once again assisting the hero Rex Harrison by helping to fight the beastly "Bosch" and playing the same characters "Charters and Caldicott" with a straight bat that they played in the captioned film.
After an insulting experience in the corridor - "Don't you know to stand when a German officer speaks to you?" Charters explains he is English."No you don't need to stand you should be at our feet" sneers the Nazi.This insulting remark so incenses Charters that he rapidly gets the approbation of Caldicott to help Harrison,(posing as a German major), that "they,(the Nazis),are on to him.I loved their wisecracks.
Funny to see Paul Henreid playing a rabid Nazi after all the heroic roles one is used to seeing him play.
