A classic film featuring the Marlene Dietrich and John Wayne duo. They’re a bit disparate, but a very popular Universal studios couple. The film features enjoyable American war propaganda full of clichés, but they are so artfully incorporated that it doesn't ruin anything. Marlene is still irresistible, still from Europe, and still finds herself between two men. And if anyone is fighting over Marlene, it's definitely without her, which is tasteful. That's all you need to be happy from celluloid.

If it had been taken to that dramatic level, to a properly destructive finale, rather than the other way around with this happy ending, it would have been a great film. John Wayne delivers an excellent performance in terms of portraying a dramatic character who becomes bad, but he simply couldn't be a jerk the whole time. It's a shame about the twist because otherwise, it would have been great.
