Against The Wind (1948)

Set during WWII, a Catholic priest (Robert Beatty) is recruited by the wartime British Special Operations Executive to covertly be dropped behind enemy lines in Belgium in order to destroy a Nazi records office in Brussels and to spring a prominent British agent (Peter Illing) from the prison where he is held by the Nazis. Directed by Charles Crichton (A FISH CALLED WANDA). An unexceptional war movie that's notable for Simone Signoret in her first English language film. As to the film itself, if you're into war movies you might enjoy it although the emphasis is not on battle but suspense as a handful of recruits parachute into Nazi held Belgium to accomplish their mission in a short span of time. I found some of these saboteurs not too bright as their actions risk the lives of their compatriots and the mission too. A proficient (it's watchable) but unimaginative movie. With James Robertson Justice, Jack Warner, Gordon Jackson, Paul Dupuis, John Slater and Andre Morell.
