A bit unbalanced but worth watching

Fall from Grace describes the war of the young English-French Catherine, her mother is killed in 1940 during the German campaign against France, Catherine escapes to England where she eventually volunteers to become a spy.

The Movie is based on a book by Larry Collins. Tara Fitzgerald as Catherine does her job well and manages to pull off some touching scenes in the last scenes of the film.

However Richard Anconina as Paul is not nearly as convincing as Fitzgerald, he lacks touch and does not fit to his role.

York and Fox give good back up as all experienced actors should, the Director does his bit nicely and in all I´d say this movie is not bad at all, I give it 8 from 10.

Zitate
Hans-Dieter Stromelburg: [after carefully washing his hands in the bathroom and inspecting himself in the mirror there, enters the ornately-decorated office where Catherine is sitting naked on the chair, her wrists manacled behind her back again] So, Denise... Yes, that is what they call you, isn't it? Professionally. So, Denise...
[letting his eyes roam over her naked flesh]
Hans-Dieter Stromelburg: You are not a child.
[smirks]
Hans-Dieter Stromelburg: That much anyone can see. Now you know where you are and you know what I want. This is your last chance to cooperate.
Catherine Pradier: [swallowing hard] You know I can't do that.
Hans-Dieter Stromelburg: [bending over her, taking her by her bare shoulders, looking quite sincerely into her eyes] Don't make me turn them loose on you.
[tutting]
Hans-Dieter Stromelburg: Don't make me do that, please.
[drawing out that word, as she just looks at him ruefully, and he switches his attention to her confiscated handbag on the table, rifling through her identity documents]
Hans-Dieter Stromelburg: Is this all she was carrying?
First Gestapo Guard: Yes, Herr Obersturmführer!
Hans-Dieter Stromelburg: Where is the microfilm with your instructions?
[no answer from her]
Hans-Dieter Stromelburg: You can tell me now or after they've finished pulling out your fingernails one by one, it's your choice.
Catherine Pradier: [fighting back tears] There is no microfilm.
Hans-Dieter Stromelburg: [selecting an ornament and holding it up, rubbing it appreciatively] This is 17th Century Chinese porcelain. It's a work of art. It's unique. Priceless. Once destroyed, it cannot be replaced. It will be gone forever. Like your beauty.
[drops the vase, letting it smash into smithereens at her bare, bound feet]
Hans-Dieter Stromelburg: Do not let me do the same to you.
