Alternative title: HITLER'S WOMEN.SYNOPSIS: A German woman (Gail Patrick) returns to her homeland during WW2. Horrified at the degraded status of women in Germany, she seeks to overthrow the regime. COMMENT: A dated wartime propaganda story by Frank Wisbar is given a new lease of life here by the extraordinarily imaginative direction of Steve Sekely (of all people). True, the players offer no more than token conviction, the sets and costumes are seedy, the photography often drab. But producer Millakowsky has invested this offering with more production values than any two Monogram thrillers combined. Sekely has taken full advantage of this opportunity with a display of involved tracking and crane shots, masked camera set-ups and other highly ingenious effects. And we loved the script's unique device of reprising the story to ask a leading question at the finale.
