OK Hans. For you an austro-hungarian born actor in a post war american movie. He plays the person who wrote the book the movie is based on. Book title or movie title please.

Oha, nothing is true somehow, but as a strict Nazi, of course excellent, according to the scheme to 200%...

Did the film have to do with a German director who even emigrated to the USA due to repressive measures at the time...?

Nice riddle! :wink:

Correct Mark, it’s Oskar Karlweis in the role of the
attaché/spy handler Ludwig Carl Moyzisch. Movie is based on the book “Der Fall Cicero” (1950).

Yeah, kind of a propaganda type so prelevent in the late 30's and all throught the war years, fearmongering against the evil Nazi and Japanese Hoard..This movie is about *Nazi's* as the term was so widely used back then. Its a prewtty good movie and can be found on YouTube for free, and other public domain free sites..

I'll give a clue... 007 these guys ain't!!! ,Now thats a clue that I bet Waleed understands..

Mark, thanks for your notes...

"Hitler – Dead or Alive" from the year 1942, unfortunately, that's all I can think of... :roll:
