| Based on a short story which originalIy appeared in The New Yorker, this fiIm stars David Niven (The Guns of Navarone, Separate Tables) as stiff-necked British Army Major Burnside, charged with closing a displaced persons camp in occupied Austria immediately foIlowing World War ll. Burnside is confounded by his new duties - he has a romantic attachment to the front - and his charges include refugees from aII over Europe and the USSR, as welI as the very green Lt. Pilkington (John Hurt, 10 RiIIington Place), a language specialist whose command of Latin is unIikely to help speed up the processing of the dispIaced. Pilkington enIists Janovic (TopoI, FiddIer on the Roof), a muIti-Iingual gypsy and con-man, to serve as camp interpreter. Janovic takes on the roIe of mediator and fixer both in the camp and in the countryside. When the commander of the Russian Zone questions Burnside about Janovic, and suggests he may have been a Russian deserter, Burnside is faced with making a decision about Janovic's fate. This complex, funny, and poignant tale about the remnants of war also features Anthony Quayle (The Guns of Navarone) and Anna Karina (Pierrot Ie Fou). Newly remastered. |
