Situation Hopeless But Not Serious*
(US 1965)
Paramount/Castle. 97m. bw
Two American pilots parachute down during a raid but are protected by a lonely German who neglects to tell them when the war is over.
Scrappily made (and titled) comedy with notable names involved - who almost manage to carry off the implausibility. Guinness is pleasant but not hilarious, and Redford overacts in an earlier stage of his career. Both are nonetheless interesting to watch.
Written by: Silvia Reinhardt, Jan Lustig, from the novel "The Hiding Place" by Robert Shaw.
Producer/Director: Gottfried Reinhardt.
Starring: Robert Redford, Mike Connors, Alec Guinness, Paul Dahlke, Anita Hofer, Mady Rahl, Elisabeth von Mola.
Photography: Hurt Hasse.
Music: Harold Byrne, Leon Carr.
