None Shall Escape
(1944)
Directed by Andre De
Toth this film stars Alexander Knox, Marsha Hunt, Henry Travers and
Erik Rolf. After the war a German officer stands trial for his crimes
and we learn his path to Nazism via flashback.
This film is notable
for being made before the end of the war but predicting the post war
events of the Nuremberg trials. Unfortunately the story is not that
deep, or even reflects the full horrors of Nazi rule and as a court
room drama it is not that compelling either. While the film is fairly
well made again the execution is not especially remarkable either.
3/5
