5.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent WWII Period Film, December 11, 2004
This review is from: Joan of Paris [VHS] (VHS Tape)
Joan of Paris is about 5 British RAF flyers shot down over occupied France during WWII. They must make their way to Paris and the French underground in order to escape back to England. The lead character (Paul), played by Paul Henreid, must hook up with his fellow pilots but is being followed everywhere by a Gestapo agent. In the meantime, he falls in love with a French waitress (Joan, played by Michele Morgan), who has connections to the French underground. She helps him and his friends escape back to England at her own perile. This is a well done fictional film that provides insight into French life during WWII, especially the French underground and the tactics of the German Gestapo. And it has a nice love story mixed in.
