***I note that the customers give the film 4 1/2 stars out of five. I guess they don't think it's "lame".Well, Bogie's acting is still absolutely fine there, so it was natural for people to like the film. But I am sure they also reacted to the patriotic plot... I suspect if they knew that was a knock-off, and using the SOVIET film as a model, at that, things might have been different.
Between the two films, the original was far more dramatic, as the originals often tend to be, and if you get the chance to see them side-by-side I think you will agree Romm's film (as the whole) is far superior.
But I suspect your chances of finding the original are probably pretty much non-existent.
