Hangmen Also Die! / USA / 1943
A riveting WW2 adventure scripted by Bertolt Brecht and directed by Fritz Lang, one of the few American films made during the conflict to accurately portray the extent and ruthlessness of Nazi atrocities. And it’s still relevant- Brian Donlevy plays underground assassin Svoboda, on the run from Gestapo agents after he murders Heydrich, ‘The Hangman’. He’s a terrorist, but a dashed charming one. The plot is intricate but moves at a rattling pace, and the great Walter Brennan excels as an avuncular college professor jailed for his beliefs. The happy ending may fail to convince in the light of all we know about the actual situation in Prague, but taken as politically spiked entertainment the film is enormously satisfying.
