A historical movie about an American who went to Germany prior to WWII and became the "Tokyo Rose" voice against the Americans. In real life, this woman (whose real name was Mildred Gillars) spoke against the country, the president, and tried to hurt the morale of the American GI's. After the war, she was caught and tried. I'll go no farther in case you want to see this movie and not have any spoiler here. Notable in this movie is Al Pacino who acts as her defense attorney. His acting was incredible!
The movie is worth seeing, and knowing it's based on an actual person and actual events makes it more interesting. The pace of the movie isn't fast.. so don't expect that. An interesting story and very good acting! Plenty of historical inaccuracies (attention to detail) in uniforms and aspects related to both Germany and radio of that time period. Much of what you see appears to be fairly low budget, but the acting of Pacino really carries this movie (or at least it did for me).
The movie carries a fairly high viewer rating of a 7.0 on IMDB as I write this, but that feels overly generous. I'd give it about a 6.0 rating. It's not bad, but certainly NOT a 7 out of 10.

- QuizMildred Elizabeth Gillars nicknamed "Axis Sally" along with Rita Zucca, was an American broadcaster employed by Nazi Germany to disseminate Axis propaganda during World War II. Following her capture in post-war Berlin, she became the first woman to be tried for treason against the United States in March 1949.
- BlooperIn the title for the closing arguments, the title reads "Closing Arguments, Gillars v. United States". The defendant is always listed second in court actions. In this case, the United States was clearly the prosecuting agent, Gillars was obviously the defendant.
- Citazioni
Joseph Goebbels: Their capitalism has produced a handful of wealthy men, and a nation of slaves who think they are free. Their Hollywood films glamorize the lifestyle of the upper few, while the rest of the country keeps fantasizing that one day, this could be them. They're too unintelligent to realize that the few pennies they are paid to break their backs will never afford them anything. A nation of imaginative, dreaming fools. Why do you defend them? The United States is falling apart. Their leaders have been waiting for this opportunity. They want a war. Do you know why? The president has led the nation into an economic catastrophe from which there is no escape. An entire generation of youths lost and jobless. The country is on the verge of revolution. So, they send their sons to be slaughtered.
- Curiosità sui creditiThe end credits state that "the story, all names, characters, and incidents portrayed in this production are fictitious..." Which is clearly not true since the film is based on a true story and includes real historical characters that existed.
