Good old spy film with a resourceful German agent after American secrets
by Charlot472021-11-29

"How close the film is to reality I cannot say, but it makes a fine story. Largely silent over the horrors of the Nazi régime, it equally avoids moralising over the ethics of nuclear weapons. So what we are left with a good old spy film with a resourceful German agent after American secrets, to be betrayed by an amazingly incompetent American sidekick and redeemed by the love of an American woman who accepts him once he renounces his calling. American economic and military might is portrayed sympathetically, as many West Germans no doubt saw it in 1956...."
