5.0 out of 5 stars
DVD-5 Fingers
This movie was very hard to get-not available via Netflix or from the TCM video catalog.I purchased it through Amazon-the DVD was made in Korea. I received it in a timely manner and the quality was excellent. It was easy to remove the Korean subtitles. The movie itself is terrific-well worth watching.

What are these reviewers talking about?
What in the world are these reviewers talking about? Last year I bought this DVD on two separate occasions and each copy was junkier than the other. Are we saying that Amazon's "sellers" are now peddling better prints of this great film. And how did David Lean get into this? Please fill me in.

Great movie offering intrigue, suspense and wonderful acting from James Mason. If you like WWII settings this spy thriller will please.

Based on a real-life story, "5 Fingers" is an excellent David Lean movie that hasn't aged. Talented James Mason plays the spy to perfection. Thrilling throughout, the movie has a couple of unexpected twists at the end. I recommend this oldie - which I received surprisingly fast, thank you Amazon.com!.

Posted in Istanbul and working for British Intelligence the protagonist lives a double life selling his information to Nazis, who are paying best. Exciting and intelligent spy-thriller from the master Mankiewicz and Mason is excellent in his role. Highly recommended.

If you've a WWII buff and never seen this movie starring the great & underappreciated James Mason, you really should check it out. James Mason stars as 'valet, servant' turned opportunistic spy. This film is reminiscent of another great WWII spy film "The Man Who Never Was" with Clifton Webb. And like that film, the 'action' in 5 Fingers is rather slow by todays standards but the dialogue between characters and the way they move about the screen in glorious black & white, is something you don't see in films anymore. This movie has a simple plot but a couple of wonderful 'twist's I won't reveal here, that you just don't see coming. The ending with James Mason now elevated from 'servant' to 'Master' will leave you speechless and remind you that as they say 'they dont make movies like this anymore'
