Directed By Billy Wilder
Format:
In a remote oasis hotel in the Sahara Desert, British soldier Franchot Tone impersonates a servant in order to get information from the inn's newest "guests": invading Afrika Korps tank troops and their commander, Gen. Irwin Rommel (Erich von Stroheim). Things get tricky when Tone learns the servant was really a German spy in the WWII espionage tale "Five Graves To Cairo" (1943). The caustic comedy "A Foreign Affair" (1948) finds dignified congresswoman Jean Arthur's investigation into black market influence on occupying GIs in post-war Berlin bringing her into close contact with handsome officer John Lund. The problem is that Lund is involved with Marlene Dietrich, a nightclub singer with ties to former Nazi officials. 3 1/2 hrs. total on two discs. Standard; Soundtrack: English.
