The term wasn't in use at the time, but this is a 1945 "Chick Flick," and a very good one, too. Constance Bennett, looking for all the world like an earlier incarnation of Reese Witherspoon, offers the viewer a time-stamped definition of "spunk," while Gracie Fields brings to the role of Bennett's heroic co-conspirator all the bravura one could expect from a veteran Music Hall comedienne and singer. The cinematographers did a remarkable job of recreating the look and feel of war-time Paris and the Occupied Zone of France with file film, process shots and studio mockups. Equally remarkable is the fact that all the occupying Germans, down to the lowliest private, speak English! It's clever and funny, but some of the bold strokes, such as the years of imprisonment the leads suffer, seem a bit too ripe for modern tastes. But, what the hey! Let yourself go.

I received a certain lightness of faint pleasure while viewing this film. I couldn't get into the spirit of the story of these two women, however, because, despite the fact that they were charming actresses and engaging in their personas, I kept seeing Nazi monsters lurking in the woods or behind the doors, ready to pounce on them and do their evil. Yes, this created the feeling of suspense and apprehension so needed in this kind of film but I unfortunately grew up when these ogres were real, lurching across the oceans in our direction and so became the subjects of nightmares for us youngsters. At best, I could only smile speculatively at the goings-on in this film. It was all too easy, sort of like the bother of having to remove a spot from one's skirt before appearing at dinner. Constance was a knockout and Grace was superb at underacting.

It is an old one but excellent if you are a WWII buff like myself. I loved it. It was not only a good drama, it was also rather humorous too. It is about 2 women: one American and one British: who lived in France prior to the start of the war. They wound up stumbling upon the need for people to smuggle downed British and American air plane pilots out of occupied France. Since the two women were best friends, they went into the endeavor together and, at first, were rather clumbsy about it. In the end, they wound up saving nearly 260 pilots and bearly escaped execution themselves. I think you will enjoy it if you don't mind watchin old black and whites..

A good movie, but read book after viewing. After seeing movie you will feel good, after reading the excellent book you will have several emotions, sad, and glad for the two women in the story. Constance Bennett, the director, was the wife of my boss (an AF General), when I a new 2nd Lt in AF in 1962 and was a great lady and a lot of fun. She told me one time that the studio made her change story line to be acceptable to public at time.

I bought this tape because I met Gracie Fields in the 1950's and she was incredibly sweet. I told her that my mother thought she was dead and cried every time she was on TV, and would she call my mom and let her know she is alive. She called my mom and even invited my mom to visit her on Capri which she did 3 times. So I loved every minute of this movie. And it has a lot of originality too.

Love these old WWII underground - type movies - this was a swell one! And as petty as this sounds : what happened to those little Poodles? I hate when that happens; characters or animals disappear w/out any explanation. Did Nazis eat them or line them up against wall blindfolded, kneel down & shoot them? (Don't mean to be disrespectful - I know what unsung heroes those brave people were.)

I had never heard of this movie before and thought I would give it a go just for the truly bizarre pairing of Constance Bennett and Gracie Fields as co-stars and I am so glad I did as this is a great movie.
True ,its very much a "B" movie in terms of production - lots of back projection and sparse sets - but the story of 2 women helping to smuggle soldiers out of occupied France is entertaining and well acted and makes up for the cheap production values.
The 2 stars play really well together and are really well cast as a couple of friends.
Give this a go you will be pleasantly surprised.

I've watched this a few times, and each time I enjoyed it more than the last time. The dramatization was clever and funny. In spite of the seriousness of the topic, these people were great, and showed courage and tenacity.

This is a film I have wantedto see for a very long time because it features an actress often associated with musical films. This was a first class film in which Gracie Fields played a straight role.
I think it was her last fim.
