Excellent film, but one small quibble...
A pleasant surprise to find it on (UK) BBC2 as I type this, as its years since I've seen it.
As a Brit however, I take some small offence at one thing in the film. Anne Baxters character, Mouche, seemingly hates the British because her 2 brothers were left on the beach at Dunkirk, along with the other French, when the British evacuated....she makes quite a big deal of it. Baxter/Franchot Tone asks where she heard that, implying it was simply Vichy propaganda, but makes no effort to tell her that fully ONE THIRD of those evacuated from Dunkirk were French/Belgian....then the same argument comes up again towards the end, again uncountered.
Its a small thing really, but in a wartime film, made for propaganda purposes, why was such a seemingly anti-British UNTRUTH left uncontested?
