Decision Before Dawn (1951) - Anatole Litvak

My second WWII film from Fox nominated for a best picture today, this one is nowhere near as good. Fox had a tendency to boast of their films realism in this time. Once again a film was made with the full cooperation of everyone, and was filmed on location. This is about German's captured and then used as spies by the US. Like all WWII films, particularly the ones from Fox, this is based on things that actually happened. Now this realism should add, but here it just detracts. A bunch of Germans talking about loyalty and their thoughts. I found it hard to care about this film, or even be remotely interested.

*Decision Before Dawn was nominated for best picture and best editing.
