    This is an intriguing watch featuring some genuine French resistance workers that gives a real authenticity to their courageous efforts in conjunction with considerable co-operation and co-ordination from the Royal Air Force. In inflicting maximum damage to the Nazi war machine during WWII, they proved daring and innovative. It's based around two characters - "Felix" (Harry Rée) and "Cat" (Jacqueline Nearne) who provide us with an interesting narrative around how they are selected, trained and utilised in this most secretive - and dangerous - of tasks: causing as much mayhem and mischief to the enemy by sabotaging lines of communications in remarkably simple, but extremely effective ways. It's more of a documentary, there is not really much...
