What a great movie? Why can't they make movies like this anymore? Rather than special effects, CGI, this depended on plot and quality acting. (although acting styles have changed considerably over the years)
Why on earth would anyone want to watch Survival, or My Snottiest Bride or whatever reality trash we are inundated with?

Yet ANOTHER Sterling Performance by the justifiably "venerated" Jack Hawkins.... The added casting of Felix Aylmer, Alexander Knox and cameo by Michael Caine was a particular delight, too!! I loved Hawkins' portrayal as the neurotic Reverend in ZULU (1964), whereas this engaging "2-headed" film successfully elaborated on the Reich circumstances that led up the to their defeat in the Arden / Baston, hence largely the end of the war, which was well-characterized in the goooood 1965 film, too, "The Battle Of The Bulge". THX Choco!!?

In the beginning of the movie when I saw Jack Hawkins playing a Nazi German officer, I immediately thought....Nah, this is ridiculous, this is Jack Hawkins..Mr. British himself...trying to play a German officer...??? But I soon saw what was going on...thank goodness..LOL..!! After watching this movie, I looked up Colonel A.P. Scotland ( the Jack Hawkins character ), and read about his life. There is a slight difference between this movie and the real life of this man, but I won't say anything here...look it up yourself. Still, I always enjoy watching any movie with Jack Hawkins.?

This was made in 1958! Surely they could have found German actors to play German characters. German officers with British accents seems all wrong.?
