BACKGROUND TO DANGER - Decoded!

Join Dan and Tom as they decode the 1943 spy movie BACKGROUND TO DANGER starring George Raft, Brenda Marshall, Peter Lorre, and Sydney Greenstreet. Is it worth a watch? We decode all that for you!

In this black-and-white World War II spy movie, everyone wants to get their hands on an envelope that contains something strategic for the war. What's in it? What do they want it for? There are some fun twists in this movie that we don't give away.

Some of the topics we discuss include:

  • The basic plot
  • How real-world events are used enhance the story
  • Scenes from other spy movies that may have influenced this one
  • The screenplay
  • The excellent cast
  • The Peter Lorre and Sydney Greenstreet connection
  • The direction
  • The set design (Dan and Tom don't fully agree here)
  • The score
  • The train scenes (this is a spy movie!)
  • And More …
