Fictionalized Account of the Heydrich Assassination

This World War 2 movie was released in 1943, mid-war for the USA, and starred a well-known cast in a well-made fictionalized version of the assassination of Reinhard Heydrich, SS General, and the governor of the German-occupied Czech land. Although today's audiences watch few black and white movies, preferring movies filmed in color or colorized versions, this movie is worth the watch. The propaganda was subtle for a mid-war movie.
