My contribution is from a complete different angle than my 20 predecessors' contributions! Actually there were no problems on the acting parts, both Paccino and Williams were convincing. However my beef is with the aspect of the movie! It portrayed Gillars as an innocent victim! She was a failed Broadway star who fell for a German in New York and went to live in Germany five years before the war began in order to be with him! When Americans were evacuated she decided to stay because of her ambition and hunger for the fame and glitter ended up getting caught up in the nazi propaganda machinery! Frankly she knew what she was doing! And she got off very lightly! What's even worse is the Italian Axis Sally could not even be tried because she had renounced her American citizenship. And she remained in Italy and was tried by and Italian court and I think only served 9 months in jail!
