Classic Cinema of World War II: Spies, Saboteurs, and Resistance Fighters




« back to classes page
ClassGraphic In this study group we will watch critically-acclaimed and award-winning films about fearless individuals whose secret and dangerous missions off the battlefield paved the way for the Allied victory over Nazi Germany. Many of them were unsung heroes who gave their lives in the cause of freedom. Among the films that will be presented are: Casablanca (1942), The Man Who Never Was (1956), The Counterfeit Traitor (1961), The Imitation Game (Britain, 2014), Army Of Shadows (France, 1969),  Flame And Citron (Denmark, 2008), and others. Join us to watch these classic WW II films and for the sure-to-be-lively discussion following each film.
