this film seem to be an inept attempt to recapture the magic of casablanca ( it even feature the end scene of the plane take off ) and fail despite have sydney greenstreet and peter lorre . the story deal with a nazi plot to stir up trouble in neutral turkey and it doesn not work . george raft be miscast and just doesn not pull it off . it be ironic that he turn down the lead role in casablanca and movie fan should be grateful . recommend only for movie buff and peter lorre and sydney greenstreet fan .
