After escaping a Nazi POW camp, a young Scottish RAF gunner recounts his perilous journey through occupied France with the help of the Resistance. During his debriefing in London, French intelligence officers press him for details—especially about one companion whose true loyalties may not be what they seemed.

Hitchcock truly stands the test of time. He plays with perspective and weaves in elements of espionage, all wrapped in his signature suspense. A compelling piece of wartime propaganda.

The Master of Suspense, Alfred Hitchcock
Surprisingly quite good. I was slightly worried it would be boring and bad acting but it wasn’t it. I thought it was quite similar to a Hitchcock Presents episode.
