Wissenswertes
In an interview with Starlog Magazine, published in September 1983, Malcolm McDowell said of this movie: "That movie contains some of the best work I've ever done. I managed to pack into a dozen scenes with the whole period of Nazi tyranny in a convincingly evil way." Also, Malcolm McDowell said of this movie in Starlog Magazine, published in July 1995: "I played this real nasty Nazi who was chasing these people across the Pyrenees. We all knew real early on that the movie was not going to be any great work of art and so I was determined to have some fun with it. My attitude was that if I was going to play a Nazi, I was going to take it totally over the top and do it right. I ended up playing the character like a pantomime queen. What I was doing was so far out that James Mason turned to me one day and said, 'That's wonderful dear boy, but are you in our film? You seem to be doing something different from the rest of us'."

When Von Berkow uses binoculars at the mountains, a few camera movements are recognizable, revealing that binocular frame was added in post-production.

6/10

Plodding WWII thriller

A solid but slow and at times surprisingly brutal WWII thriller in which a family must be smuggled out of occupied France via the mountains on the Spanish border. In pursuit is a sadistic SS officer. With the relaxaTion of censorship in the 1970s some films pushed the limits of what they could do. The flaws of the film are it has quite a rough feelz a few bits are not that well edited, the dialogue can be stiff, the cast are all getting on, at times the German accents come and go. At times the movie is unpleasant and grim, but the characters are not really well developed due to a lack of dialogue, it doesn't have that emotional core. It does drag at times too though some of the battle sequences are decently shot, the art department also did a good job. 6/10 for me.
