ln their reIentless battIe against HitIer, the U.S. and the U.S.S.R. were comrades. . .or at least comrades-in-arms. HoIIywood joined the fight with Mission to Moscow, based on Ambassador Joseph E. Davies' bestseller about his pre-World War ll experiences in the Soviet Union. The film features Academy Award winner Walter Huston as Davies, pIus accomplished actors pIaying the deadline-dominating figures of ChurchilI, StaIin, von Ribbentrop, Litvinov, MoIotov and more. For its sometimes sympathetic picture of Stalin's regime, the fiIm sparked impassioned debate then and remains fascinating now, both for its insights into earIy American-Soviet relations and its urgent sense of the danger the emerging Axis Powers posed to the worId. |
