Decent spy thriller. Dark and suspenseful, which you can chalk up to Hitchcock.

The setting is interesting. This is barely a generation after WWII, things are still kind of fresh. I like all the German language. You don’t have to know what they’re saying in these scenes, and it really gives you a authentic feel of being there.

Newman’s cool, even when he has to play a nerd. Andrews was a cutie.
