 Loosely based on a true story, Christopher Plummer plays British bank robber Eddie Chapman who finds himself caught between the waring parties in WW2, the British and the Germans. working as a spy for both sides he tries to play the 3rd reich and the British against each other. the real life Chapman described himself as a completely  amoral  person, which adds a nice philisophical touch to this somewhat colourful spy-flic. Is there any moral in making war ? Even if you re the  good  fighting  evil  ?
