Product Description

Jean-Pierre Aumont (billed as "Pierre Aumont") makes his American film debut in this wartime espionage thriller adapted from the blockbuster novel by the famed "Queen of Spy Novels," Helen MacInnes. Aumont plays dual roles: Bertrand Corlay, a Breton farmer with Nazi sympathies, and Pierre Metard, a captain in the Free French Forces. After Corlay ends up in British custody, his astonishing resemblance to Captain Metard is recognized and Pierre is tasked with memorizing another man's life in order to take his place inside Nazi-occupied Britanny. His assignment? Locate and sabotage a secret U-boat pen hidden along the coast. His complications? Corlay's suspicious mother (Margaret Wycherly), Corlay's collaborative mistress (Signe Hasso) and Corlay's beautiful, righteous fiancee (Susan Peters). Turncoats, twists and torture are all in the mix under the assured guidance of director Jack Conway, culminating in a thrilling commando assault on an underground submarine base.

Review by 🥀 e m m é ★★★★

Still my favorite Jean-Pierre Aumont performance! He’s so charismatic and winning and heroic in this role. And his character is a doppelgänger posing as his counterpart which is just so darn  interesting , especially because since only he gives himself away by being too kind. Meanwhile, Susan Peters lends her sweet, rather naïve character an innate intelligence that puts her in a tier above the average love interest. I just adore this brisk little film and I’m so happy I bought the Warner Archive DVD to watch whenever my heart desires!

Review by 🥀 e m m é ★★★½

I thought maybe I had seen this before, but I’d have remembered Jean-Pierre Aumont’s performance or his excellent hair! And genuinely, one of the best upper-tier B movies that I’ve seen in a while. The story moves along well and maintains a tension that Helen MacInnes’ novel could never quite muster. Hope I get the chance to see this again at some point!

Review by 🇵🇱 Steve G 🇵🇸 ★★★½

There's a fair few of these 'imposter spy' thrillers, so many that I've probably watched more of them than I realise even though many of them are the same.

I don't think that sentence makes any sense but there you have it.

Assignment in Brittany isn't much different from most but at least it does put some effort into its story and does have a different perspective, focusing on French resistance. Jean-Pierre Aumont is really good in the lead - he did a decent number of English language roles in his career but this is one of his strongest, regardless of language.

Here he plays the imposter, a role complicated by two love interests, a suspicious 'mum' and the fact…

Review by jamawive ★★★★

Good lord that was satisfying. In a world that seems increasingly out of control, with rampant newly fortified racism in my country (USA) and global fascism on the rise (and that really is just the tip of a long list of terrible troubles today), it just feels right to watch some Nazis get wiped out.* And in style! This is a snappy little WWII B-movie that packs a lot of punch. I also admit to now having a huge crush on Pierre (aka Jean-Pierre) Aumont. Mon dieu! *Yes, yes, I know this is hypocritical, and not pacific or spiritual at all (I do apologize to Buddhists everywhere, really). I concur. Just give me my moment of glee, okay? Sigh.

Review by PUNQ ★★½

Honorable espionage story starring French star Jean-Pierre Aumont during his brief war-time Hollywood stint. He comes out of this film with his dignity intact. While the film is solid, it lacks flair and the gruesome Nazi tactics comes across more as routine than emotional. But if you love old World War II movies, this is a good pick.

Review by smokeandmirrors ★★★★

in the middle of a thoroughly-mediocre-spy-films marathon this one was such a breath of fresh air, i thought it was so neat. always love the identity shenanigans involved in impersonating your doppelganger -- the way pierre's relationship develops with his not-mother is great, and that scene where he goes and pumps the poor heartbroken girl who loves him for info on where he might have been meeting his paramour? amazing! crunchy, delicious, dreadful emotional tension! i gasped and fluttered my hand over my chest when i realised what he was doing. i had to rewatch the ending because i zoned out embarrassingly fast at the first sign of explosions but on second sight it was well done, they did a good job. signe hasso was very good as a collaborator and jean-pierre aumont is a new name to me but i shall be keeping an eye out for him in the future

And yet it was difficult to restrain his own particular brand of humour when a young woman took herself so seriously: still more difficult when the young woman was so beautiful as this one.
