Jerry Posted August 9, 2009 Report Share Posted August 9, 2009 Our cable provider ran an old 1941 black and white feature with Walter Pigeon and Charles Sanders (as a Nazi!) with Joan Bennett as a 'bit o'all right' -- I suppose it could be called a propaganda film. Pigeon as game hunter has der Fuhrer in his sites, but gets arrested, tortured, and escapes back to England, only to be harassed by pro-German Brits including a trumped charge by Scotland Yard. I loved the language, when Joan (a simple shop girl fascinated by a REAL GENT needin' 'er help) says, "Oo, is pestering oo? I saw this over 50 years ago, but still found it worthy of my time again. I know that isn't the correct spelling of Pigeon but can't figure how it should be spelled. I wonder if he was really Brit? By the way, Rodd Mac was also in it, helping him escape on a Danish ship from Germany to London. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry Posted August 9, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 9, 2009 OK, looked it up, it's spelled Pidgeon, and he was born in Canada but known as an American actor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
