This handsomely mounted adventure film tells the true story of Norwegian Resistance fighters who successfully sabotaged a Nazi plot to develop an atomic bomb. Kirk Douglas, as a scientist recruited to this mission, must coordinate with the hot-headed Resistance fighter Richard Harris, locking horns over strategy and authority in their race against time. Spectacular locations and widescreen compositions grace this late masterwork by Anthony Mann.
