THE LAST BRIDGE
(Austria-Yugoslavia,1953) Starring Maria Schell and Bernhard Wicki
"One of the finest films to emerge from World War II . . . it could be the story of any war, for it does not center on battles and bombings, but on human values, and it involves a conflict of emotions that is extraordinarily touching. . . . Such a sensitive performance rarely comes along on the screen."
