Special features: New piece on the film's special effects by visual effects expert Craig Barron; Hollywood propaganda and World War II, a new interview with writer Mark Harris; interview with director Alfred Hitchcock from a 1972 episode of The Dick Cavett Show; radio adaptation of the film from 1946; "Have you heard?" the story of Wartime rumors; trailer; booklet.
Joel McCrea, Herbert Marshall, Laraine Day, George Sanders, Albert Basserman, Robert Benchley, Edmund Gwenn, Eduardo Ciannelli, Harry Davenport, Martin Kosleck.
A full-throttle espionage thriller, starring Joel McCrea as a green Yank reporter sent to Europe to get the scoop on the imminent war. It's wall-to-wall witty repartee, head-spinning plot twists, and brilliantly mounted suspense set pieces, including an ocean plane crash climax with astonishing special effects.
Blu-ray, full screen presentation; Dolby digital mono.
