  5. мне этот фильм , приоткрыл многие пробелы в истории…, в россии такой фильм не покажут

  6. A masterful piece of period propaganda. But could a nation that vaporized the civilian populations of two defenseless japanese cities be trusted with the exclusive custody of such a weapon?

  7. Somewhat I get the image of what's happening in America today. Maybe in a different approach and circumstances but the goal is the same. Destroy Democracy.

  8. Great spy film. Apropos to what is going on in our country presently. A move towards Marxism and Communism that even the Russian spies wanted to get away from. Totalitarianism, in which people tell you how to move, how to live, and how to think. Marxism doesn't promote egalitarianism or equality. It's a bed where the greedy and the ambitious ferment.

  12. If this movie had no stars except Berry Kroger as a communist spy master, it would still be great. There's definitely something Kim Philby about him.

  14. Excellent movie! Lighting, acting. Music score, story and feeling were all major keys in this film. You could feel the intense scenes and feel in awe with the uplifting scenes.
    Any other recommendations?

  18. When the ' Back build global reset ' is in full swing this generation will come to realize too late to understand how they lost their liberty. The words of the Soviet drunk major will answer their questions, '' you were born too late''.

  21. What most people don't know is that USSR and Japan never declared war on each other, nor really fought each other, until shortly before Japan surrendered. USSR declared war, and the two were involved in the most brutal and massive battles of WWII. Which are never heard about. This was significant in forcing Japan to surrender.

  24. What a finely detailed plot and well-developed script describing this dramatized True Story espionage….!!! ?
    Dana Andrews in a somewhat unusual role, though performed to a 'T' in a rather gnawing "believability".
    The entire cast was full of good choices, where Gene Tierney too added her "classic touch" of often innocent naivete!! The characterization of the RCMP was admirable….. almost famously accurate. ?

  32. mot much has changed . rusia is still a repressive , depressing miserable shit hole . where the kremlin dictates and the masses conform – or else 😉

  36. Andre Previn must have aged a few years and changed his name to Alfred Newman.
    One of the ingredients of a good political spy film is credible dialogue, something this film sadly lacks.
    Apolitical propaganda!

  37. Dana Andrews (1909 – 1992) was a major Hollywood star when this movie was made with such notable successes as the roles of a police detective in Laura (1944) and as a war veteran in The Best Years Of Our Lives (1946) which out grossed Gone With The Wind (1939) . He graduated to films from the stage and worked on B grade movies from 1940 and he got his first lead in Berlin Correspondent (1942) and Laura was his big breakthrough. However by 1950 his career had peaked and alcoholism began to affect his performances and by the mid 1950s he was back to B grade movies. He eventually controlled his heavy drinking but was afflicted with Alzheimer's Disease. He was President of the Screen Actors League in 1963 – 1965 and was the brother of actor Steve Forrest (1925 – 2013) best known for his role in the TV series S.W.A.T. (1975 – 1976) and his his appearance in Mommie Dearest (1981). This film was based on the memoirs of the Soviet defector Igor Gouzenko and pro-Soviet/communist groups unsuccessfully tried to disrupt filming.

  39. That had me in suspense, but still so low key– I especially enjoyed seeing my Ottawa and the Parliament buildings where I used to clerk. I also worked in the Justice building and in the Press building across the street from the Hill. Very well done.
