True, but then there are movies with Dana Andreus like The Best Years of Our Lives (1946) or Laura, that are so good, that screw my top 10 and top 50 favorite movies ever! (Especialy the first movie I mentioned!) Those who haven't watched it...I promise it's MASTERPIECE.
Seeing General Burkhalter dressed civilian and at least a100lbs thinner made him a good Hungarian villain henchman. Dana Andrews reprises his sleuthing scheming role from Berlin Correspondent and for once George Sanders gets to play a good guy. Good Movie, first time viewing and well worth it. A good quality upload too.
Did you know that Gen Burkhalter, Sgt Shultz and LeBeau were all Jews? LeBeau was a Holocaust survivor. Schultz’s family owned one of Germany’s largest toy factories and it was all taken away from them.
Very good Cold War story. Jimmy Race (Andrews) was a little too brash in a foreign consulate and the gorgeous Moray (Torén)❤ though beautiful enough didn't seem tough enough as a news correspondent. Sandy (Totter), on the other hand, who was, worked as a fashion editor. Go figure. Sadly, Torén died far too early at the age of but 30 years old. Great cast. Enjoyable. Thank you
@larrainemorris8752 That fashion reporter was the every lovely, frequently deadly in her deviousness, when portraying a femme fatale, in her numerous film noir appearances, Audrey Totter. Some, but not her best films are available here on You Tube, and also on Internet Archive. Check them out, you will not be dissapointed.
How prophetic. No one will ever know how many people have been kept in prison or worse by countries like Russia. I pray for those who are suffering on this Sunday, 23Jun24.
I appreciate Dana Andrews. His first wife died from pneumonia along with an unnamed child. He remained married to his second wife till his death. I find that admirable. I enjoy his work.
I didn't have the highest hopes for this movie, and only watched it because I thought the movie I originally picked out would suck. I am glad I changed movies, because this movie was great: a taut thriller, without a break in the tension. One more thing: I've noticed that many movies don't use the title of the source material for the title of the movie. This was a mistake in this case, because Trial By Terror would have been a much better title than Assignment: Paris.
George Sanders is one of three actors who speak the English language as it should be spoken, The other two actors are Rex Harrison and James Mason. Dana Andrews assumed many personas in his career and did them justice. Audrey Totter, who was slated, by studio execs, to become that decade's fem noir villan , was excellent.
Comic-book level spy treatment made watchable only by the interplay between Dana Andrews and Marta Toren, which disappeared in the second half of the movie.
Welcome. Audrey Totter created the role of Millie Bronson in the radio show "Meet Millie", a situation comedy about a wisecracking Manhattan secretary from Brooklyn. The radio series began on CBS July 2, 1951, continuing until September 23, 1954. Totter dropped out when her film studio refused to allow her to appear as the character on television.
les prisons hongroises m'ont fait penser à Guantanamo en moins pire. Loin d'être un chef-d'oeuvre (je n'aime pas Parrish), mais Les 3 acteurs sont fabuleux, Sanders en tête !
I am a great George Saunder's fan, he was magnificent in Alfred Hitchcock's "Rebecca" and even better in "All About Eve" a magnificent villain, portrayed to excellence!!!!! So very sad the influence of drugs and the influence of older and sad, sadistic old men of that time!!! May you rot in hell!!!!!
When do Americans get to act with some small sample of intelligence and forethought, correct anticipation and a clever Divine Inspiration and intervention. Sooner than our mortal enemies will suppose.
@@DeniseFudge I didn’t say anything about the realism … you are probably right … I remember my grandfather rolling his own cigarettes … I am simply amazed at the nonstop volume of smoking and the nonstop places they smoked …. it was disgusting…
The closeup of the "Hungarian" intelligence man splicing audio tape to create a phony confession clearly shows and American-made recorder complete with "Chicago USA" on the take-up reel. ;)
A spy thriller, yes -- but a film noir, no. It's photographed in B & W, and it dates from the post-WW II era, true, but these elements do not make a film noir. Just for your information. Anyway, TFP. It's an absorbing film, even if Andrews hams up the American hero cliche.
If she goes back to that Evil man I will not watch your show… I’m tired of his abuse his children fear him mother Bloom in a earlier show months ago that he had a fight with his older son, lost his temper and killed him…I saw his son bleeding from his head…before he threw her out he hit her on the head she was in alot of pain…..
Why would the American government coward towards the Hungarian government? In the 1950s they could level the entire hungry if they wanted. I’m mean it’s hungry for goodness sake. 😂
Never pass on a george sanders movie
so true....he epitomizes "sardonic" with charm. . Also love Dana Andrews.
Agreed!
Absolutely! I am the exact same way!

Great story. AS American born in 1952 and well acquainted with the cold war,I did not like Communist than and,Ihave no respect for Commies now.
My Parents took in refugees from the failed Hungarian Revolution in 1956.

@@DonaldPBorchersOG Thanks for making all these fine old films available.
@@testtuba Welcome. Thanks for your support.
Gripping, even though the premise is dated. (Or is it?) But a criminally underused Audrey Totter. . .
Audrey's eyebrows needed a break

Which is better, the acting or the writing? Will have to watch it again to decide.... 😊
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching.
Did anyone notice the radio announcer at the 58:52 point - he looked and sounded like Fernando Lamas...anyone ??
It's Paul Frees, who did lots of voices, including Boris Badenov in "Rocky & Bullwinkle.
Thanks for watching, and for sharing.
@DelvingEye Thanks for the info!
What a great unexpected ending. I am so glad it was not really happening to him.

Lucky he was alive, a great movie.,pity he has to be replaced,.

Marta Toren, um dos nais belos rostos do cinema.
Märta Torén appeared on the cover of the June 13 issue of Life Magazine in 1949.
More, more, more!
Thanks for watching.
Bar tender looks like Mel blanc
Thanks for watching.
Mr. Sanders probably had the dishiest voice in the history of men...until Sean Connery...
Don't forget James Mason!!😊

Je veux bien être " kissed" par Dana Andrews !! Il est irrésistible
Big smoker and drinker, donc non merci. His alcoholism did him in, sadly.
George Sanders not bad either.Right.
No, he did not die from alcoholism. I just saw an interview with his brother, Steve Forest. He had conquered alcohol years before he died.
Ha! Thanks for sharing that. I post Dana Andrews movies here: ruclips.net/p/PLk3CReZFhoBeBt9cvgz-LKEx32YD_KivS

How the hell did these people do so much smoking … all the time … everywhere … nonstop …unbelievable…
Up until 1996, ppl were still smoking in public bars, clubs, and restaurants in NY.
Haven’t all these people been through hell 1way or another and it Wouldn’t be realistic if they didn’t smoke,
Right?! Thanks for watching!

wow,,the graat george sanders taking second billing to b movie king dana andrews
Andrews still bore some of the star-quality sheen of Laura (1944). But yeah, Sanders was always better than B status.

Why didn’t they just grab her in the beginning of the movie and water torture her to get information on where Garbo is?? Instead of following her?
Because there would be no movie. 😂
