Usta yönetmen John Frankenheimer'in imzasını taşıyan filmde, Paris her an Nazilerin kontrolünden çıkıp özgürlüğüne kavuşabilecek gibidir. En azından Alman subayı Albay Franz von Waldheim (Paul Scofield)'in aldığı istihbarat bu yöndedir. Yukarıdan ona gelen emir Jeu de Paume müzesindeki paha biçilmez sanat eserlerini anayurda getirmesi şeklindedir. Eserler Almanya'ya bir trenle sevk edilecek; demiryolu müfettişi Labiche (Burt Lancaster) de bu sevkiyata engel olmaya çalışacaktır. Tren sahnelerinde gerçek trenler ve istasyonlar kullanmakta ısrar eden Frankenheimer'in ne kadar haklı olduğu görülmüş, filme son derece gerçekçi ve heyecan dolu bir hava katan sahneler birçok yönetmeni etkilemişti.

Adapted and directed by Peter Brook from the Royal Shakespeare Company’s ‘production-in-progress US’, this long-unseen agitprop drama-doc – shot in London in 1967 and released only briefly in the UK and New York at the height of the Vietnam War – remains both thought-provoking and disturbing. A theatrical and cinematic social comment on US intervention in Vietnam, Brook’s film also reveals a 1960s London where art, theatre and political protest actively collude and where a young Glenda Jackson and RSC icons such as Peggy Ashcroft and Paul Scofield feature prominently on the front line. Multi-layered scenarios staged by Brook combine with newsreel footage, demonstrations, satirical songs and skits to illustrate the intensity of anti-war opinion within London’s artistic and intellectual community.
