In order to help bring Nazis to justice, U.S. government agent T.R. Devlin recruits Alicia Huberman, the American daughter of a convicted German war criminal, as a spy. As they begin to fall for one another, Alicia is instructed to win the affections of Alexander Sebastian, a Nazi hiding out in Brazil. When Sebastian becomes serious about his relationship with Alicia, the stakes get higher, and Devlin must watch her slip further undercover.

Pretty much just had a film class at the Academy taught by Guillermo del Toro.

I was surprised in the beginning like how and why is it so fluid and easy-going even though it's 80 years old but towards the end the plot started to be a bit stupid.
It was good to see such fragile character depicted by a woman considering how at that time it'd have been a straight pass to a death sentence in the acting scene.
The whole climax should have been written better because Dev incidentally knocking down a bottle then swiping it under the shelf was a bit unproffessional for an agent.
Not to mention that the film is out on youtube for free but don't watch it there because the uploader cut-out some scenes/sentences for god knows why. I did found that out during watching it and sometimes it was confusing to see such amateur cuts. I thought at come with the original film
