This is a great love story about a young girl named Susanne Mallison, (Claire Bloom) who visits her brother in Berlin, Germany after WW II and after a brief period of time, Susanne seems to think that her sister-in-law is having an affair with another man. It turns out that this other man is Ivo Kern, (James Mason) who had some past relationships with her.
Susanne begins to become interested in Ivo and keeps asking him plenty of questions and he finally reveals a deep dark secret about his relationship. Susanne begins to fall in love with Ivo and a powerful love affair starts off.
There is plenty of action between East and West Germany and people are killed trying to cross the boundary lines.
James Mason and Claire Bloom both gave outstanding performances and went on to make many great films. Unfortunately, James Mason was not very appreciated by the American public and never received an Academy Award for his many years of picture making. Sad
