One day you have a picnic in the park, the next day your own countrymen turn against you as spys. You don't know who to trust and that comes thru in this film.

A good addition to your war film collection.

After seeing Black Book I was interested in seeing other movies about the beginning of the German invasion of Holland. I tracked this one down, but what a waste of time it was....It's very confusing when attempting to show the atmosphere in Amsterdam at this time. Hard to know the motivations of some of the characters, and in the end the only interest for me was seeing the Australian actor, Peter Finch, in an early role before he gained international stardom.
Finally it's drab, and should be avoided!

This movie is special for me becouse my father was stand in for Peter Finch. Now he is past away this movie has more and more value for me than ever before. This movie was shot at locations around Amsterdam and Ymuiden. You still can see all the places where they were on location.
Best regarts Peter de Graaf, Son of Pieter de graaf, How was stand in for Peter Finch.
