It's hard to watch...

...not because it is boring and tedious, but because it spends the last 40 minutes of its 90 minute run showing the raw cruelty of Nazi rule over one Polish village - the Jews sent on railroad cars to concentration camps without food or water, the old men forced to do hard labor until they collapse and are shot, the girls put into forced prostitution at the Nazi officers' club.What does the first 50 minutes do? It shows the creation of a monster - Wilhelm Grimm (Alexander Knox), a German who was teaching in Poland before WWI, went to fight with his fellow Germans and lost a leg, and returned from war a bitter man. He already felt superior to the Poles before he was bitter. His fiancee (Marsha Hunt) decides she doesn't want to marry him because he has returned from war with hate in his heart, and he becomes even more angry because he thinks she has rejected him because of his lost leg and his poverty. He then commits an unspeakable act, escapes to Germany, discovers Nazism, and the rest is literally history.The entire story is told in flashback at a war crimes trial. It was inspired by FDR's promise to try those responsible for the evil they did during the war.What is remarkable about this film besides the acting and the noirish cinematography is that this was made a year before the war was over in Germany. In fact it was released four months before D Day so there was no detailed information about what had happened in Europe, not even information about the fate of the Jews. So the whole production ends up being so oddly prescient.Alexander Knox is terrific as Wilhelm Grimm, the Nazi officer who returns to this small Polish town, where he taught school years before, as a ruler representing the Third Reich. Knox played many roles as a good guy and protagonist, but he always had that school marm way about him in his performances, and it works for him here. As Grimm he's never playing a good guy, but he does go from bitter to evil very convincingly. Marsha Hunt - She's a revelation here. I had only seen her performances at MGM where she got roles that were rather bland and attenuated. She really breaks out of that MGM box in this film. I'd highly recommend this B film from little Columbia that packs an A list punch.
