They Raid by Night (1942) DVD: They Raid by Night 1942 DVD |
| Product Description : War movies do not get better than this. Despite apparent constraints on the budget, director Spencer Bennet deserves a pat on the back for his realistic portrayal of the war. There are several outstanding features in this film that even the most casual observer is unlikely to miss. First, unlike most WW II narratives, the story is set in fascinating Norway. Second, the cast was handpicked to perfection. Lyle Talbot?s depiction of a British commando and Victor Varconi?s portrayal of a German commander deserve Oscars. Third, the story is as true-to-life as any avant garde war narrative that rolled out of Hollywood?s studios in the forties. Devoid of unnecessary frills, the story is fast paced and stacked with edge-of-the-seat suspense. A dash of humor provides some welcome relief amidst tense drama. All in all, this story of a commando team that is air dropped into Norway to rescue a General and fly him to England is a pretty enjoyable affair and one that the entire family can enjoy together. |
