Plots(1)
Scripted by the celebrated writing team of Sidney Gilliat and Frank Launder (The Lady Vanishes, Night Train To Munich), this crackling World War II espionage thriller casts Deborah Kerr as Bridie Quilty, a proudly nationalistic young Irish woman whose hatred of the British leads her to be recruited by the Nazis as a spy. Her assignment - to help free a German agent from prison - is complicated when she meets and falls in love with a British officer (Trevor Howard). (Criterion)
