8/10
Northern Pursuit-Counter-Espionage Familiar But Well Done Here ***1/2
25 December 2010
Warning: Spoilers
The eyes of Helmut Dantine and Errol Flynn tell the entire story in this 1943 thriller. Both men know they can't trust each other and the former is quite diabolical in his attempt to bomb an area in Canada where supplies can be shipped to England.

Flynn takes the role of a Canadian, of German birth origin, who denounces Canada and is immediately removed from the police force there. Nazis take advantage of the situation and soon recruit him to go with them to the uppermost northern portion of the country to complete their evil plot. Gene Lockhart gives a fine supporting performance as a Canadian spy, a true patriot to the Third Reich, who learns what happens when you have completed your assignment and can now pose a hindrance.

Flynn gives a strong performance here as a scorned Canadian working in counter-intelligence for them.This is certainly A World War 11 interesting film.
