Weird propaganda thriller, 11 October 2002
5/10
Author: funkyfry from Oakland CA

Tim Holt is a nazi youth devoted to Alolf Hitler, but also in love with a petite American blonde (Granville, stepping up from A-support to B-lead) who lives and eventually works in the American school next to the nazi academy. If it sounds like a ridiculous story will develop, you won't be too surprised. Straight propaganda with the spice of melodrama. Kruger is great in a supporting part as Holt's mentor, an Oxford educated nazi colonel. I believe this movie was distributed by expoiteers wiht added holocaust footage on the end (if the sherrifs were out of sight) in the 50s. Interesting to see once, but probably not twice.
