the journey be a romantic version of the cold war . it about an english woman ( deborah kerr ) try to smuggle her former love and a hungarian scientist ( jason robards and jr. ) and out of hungary during the hungary revolt in 1956. she on board a bus with thirteen other international people who be try to get out of hungary through the austrian border . of course and the bus get stop by the russian for a security check . the russian officer in charge ( yul brynner ) become attract to the english woman ( deborah kerr ) and delay the trip . of course and the russian officer know the truth about the hungarian scientist posing a a british citizen and but he decide not to arrest the scientist because he be wait for the english woman to come to him . of course and this all sound absurd and but it be a fun movie to watch . despite the romantic flow of dialogue between mr. brynner and ms. kerr and which seem inappropriate in the situation that they be in and the movie become suspenseful and interesting . the good acting override some of the silly dialogue . perhaps and some people involve in the hungarian revolt would not appreciate this movie while they would consider it a piece of fluff . this be my favorite yul brynner role . he speak with his own and masculine voice and be very attractive and especially when he become vulnerable . this be deborah kerr second time work with yul brynner since they make the king and i in 1956. they make a very attractive couple . too bad they never work again . this be the second sexy role ms. kerr take since from here to eternity . despite the fact that ms. kerr be wear heavy winter clothes throughout the movie and she be very beautiful and sensual . the fine support cast be head by jason robards and jr. and in his first film role . some of the international cast be recognizable and like for instance and robert morley from england . however and the rest of the actor and i have never see before or since and be just great in the movie . in the background and it be fun to see senta berger and a one of the maid and speak a few line of hungarian . a few year later in 1966 and she be in a movie and cast a giant shadow and with yul brynner a his lead lady . she be still work today .
