Donald Sutherland is excelelnt as a Nazi spy in WW II England and Scotland. He has discovered that Allied weaponry poised to show an invasion at Calais is fake and that this would mean that the real invasion will come at Normandy. But he has to deliver the information dircetly to Hitler. On his way he is shipwrecked on the coast of Scotland. He gets involved with the wife of a bitter crippled man and various other adventures arise. An excellent film,
one I have seen more than once.
