Wissenswertes
According to the book "The Films of World War II" by Joe Morella, Edward Z. Epstein and John Griggs, the production was beset by many problems. The book states, "Ann Sheridan parted from husband George Brent; Errol Flynn was indicted for rape; location shooting in a small California town was delayed several weeks because of fog, during which Ruth Gordon and Judith Anderson were besieged with telegrams from Katharine Cornell demanding their return to New York for her stage production of 'The Three Sisters'. Miss Gordon was restrained from leaving, but not before letting it be known that she hated Hollywood and the picture. Fortunately for Warners, the fog lifted, Flynn was acquitted, and the film was completed."

Patzer
After Gunnar (Errol Flynn) says to Karen (Ann Sheridan), "When my father was my age, he already had two children", there's an obvious jump cut indicating some dialogue had been deleted; this likely was due to a failure to gain acceptance by the Production Code censors.

Zitate
Captain Hauptmann Koenig: What do you want?
Sixtus Andresen: I... thought it only right, considering that you are... de facto commandant of the village, to acquaint you with a decision that I've made.
Captain Hauptmann Koenig: I'm very busy.
Sixtus Andresen: I know. I hope you'll forgive me. I know I'm being selfish. But, uhh... Why did you want my house?
Captain Hauptmann Koenig: For a block house! But what was it you wanted to see me about?
Sixtus Andresen: I cannot let you have my house.
Captain Hauptmann Koenig: You what?
Sixtus Andresen: I must forbid you to enter my house.
Captain Hauptmann Koenig: [laughs hysterically] Are you insane? I could have you shot!
Sixtus Andresen: I know. But if you're interested, I'll tell you what brought me to my conclusion, which is, I can assure you, completely unshakeable. You see, I am well past seventy, and at my age it would be foolish for me to be like Socrates' enemies, and fear death more than I love truth.
Captain Hauptmann Koenig: Go on!
Sixtus Andresen: ...I have no guns, no airplanes, no force. I disdain.
Captain Hauptmann Koenig: SILENCE!
Sixtus Andresen: What you don't understand is that the individual man...
Captain Hauptmann Koenig: QUIET, YOU FOOL!
Sixtus Andresen: - The individual man must stand against you like a rock.
Captain Hauptmann Koenig: [shaking Andresen] Will you STOP!
Sixtus Andresen: [calmly] No. If I were afraid, there might be hope for you, but I am not.
[Koenig slaps Andresen across the face]
Sixtus Andresen: There are certain things you cannot take away from me... What is mine, is mine. Do you think you can stop the working of my brain and my heart?
[slap]
Sixtus Andresen: We are not animals; we are men.
[slap]
Sixtus Andresen: That is the foundation of law - you cannot win.
[slap]
Sixtus Andresen: Where are your courts?
[slap]
Sixtus Andresen: Your judges?
[slap]
Sixtus Andresen: And your juries?
[slap]
Sixtus Andresen: Until you bring them forward, I must forbid you my house.
Captain Hauptmann Koenig: HE 'FORBIDS'!
[knocks the old man down the stairwell]

8/10

Powerful WWII film

This is a pretty powerful film with star performances to match. I usually don't care for flash backs, but don't give up on the film, the beginning does NOT give away the end. This isn't a Can't-Miss-Classic like Casablanca, but it's very well worth the watching. I gave it an 8.
