Synopsis
The residents of a British village during WWII welcome a platoon of soldiers who are to be billeted with them. The trusting residents then discover that the soldiers are Germans who proceed to hold the village captive.
Review
The picture begins with a narrator telling how it came to be that a number
of Germans are buried here in the graveyard in the quiet English village of
Bramley Green. The events that occurred there in the spring of 1942 are then
shown in flashback: A platoon of British soldiers arrive who are to be
billeted in the village for a few days. Residents are cooperative and
gracious, providing lodging and food from their already rationed supply.
Before long, suspicions arise. Why do the soldiers write the figure seven
with a cross stroke? Why does one of them have a bar of Viennese chocolate?
Slowly the community realizes that the enemy is in their midst: the British
soldiers are actually German paratroopers. The villagers are rounded up and
locked in the church and several attempts to get word to the outside world
are thwarted. Then it is discovered that the village squire (Leslie Banks)
is a traitor aiding the Nazis. The vicar's daughter (Valerie Taylor) boldly
shoots him, the postmistress (Muriel George) whacks her captor over the head
with an ax, and the rest of the town joins suit until reinforcements finally
arrive. Based on a story by Graham Greene. This film was shown at Cinefest
in Syracuse NY in March 2003 and was the hit of the festival. I hope it will
be released on home video soon.
