13 Rue Madeleine
13 Rue Madeleine, WWII movie starring James Cagney
(1947) This film was produced and directed by the same team that made “The House on 92nd Street.”
In the beginning it feels like a documentary as the narrator describes the training of “O77″ agents (as the movie referred to OSS agents.) I loved seeing the offices in Washington, DC, imagining Hedy there.
When the OSS team parachutes into France, the movie quickly becomes a spy thriller with James Cagney as our hero.

Here’s the original trailer:
Do you recall ever seeing a movie about a little Chech boy the Germans thought was robbing a Jewish boy. Then Chech boy ended up working for the Nazi’s finding hidden treasures on the Jews lined up. The boy ended up living at a Catholic Church for the duration of the war. He was in actuality a Jew. I only caught the end of this movie so didn’t catch the title. It is in color and I think it was on the SONYHD channel. I have been trying to locate it since.
No I haven’t seen this movie but I’ll definitely be on the lookout for it! THANKS for checking in.
