It's pretty much his signature for Robert Mitchum to take his shirt off in his movies, but it's not every day you get to see him in the bathtub! "If you're a good girl, I'll let you scrub my back," he jokes when he thinks room service has come into his hotel room. Ladies, you might want to rent The Angry Hills if you want to see him adjusting the faucet with his feet.
And where else can you see Robert Mitchum go to a nightclub and hide his eyes in embarrassment as a topless singer dances at his table? It's pretty hilarious, and perhaps the most blatant "Take that, Code!" movie I've ever seen. Maybe an edited version was released in the United States, because I can't imagine a scene like that being released without any uproar from critics and censors.
This movie does have a plot, though, besides bathtub scenes and topless scenes. Robert Mitchum gets hold of a list of collaborators to the Greek Resistance, and while he tries to help the Greek people, he also has to dodge Nazis and undercover Nazis who want to steal the list. He doesn't know who he can trust, and when Elisabeth Muller comes into the picture for romance, she just might have an ulterior motive. If you like these types of movies, there's nothing really wrong with this one. It's pretty typical of the genre, but unless you really like underground resistance movies set during WWII, you probably won't come across it.
