Emil Hahn, the great anti-Bolshevik, leaps us at this point and calls Janning a traitor. As a director, Kramer thus bypasses no opportunity to remind America that crusading Anti-Communism has been used before as a means of encroaching on political freedom. Many liberal intellectuals have discounted the seriousness of the film because it relies on Hollywood's popular technique and personnel (Burt Lancaster, Judy Garland and Montgomery Clift turn in superb performances). These people should realize that there is a wealth of professional film-making skill in Hollywood, capable of more power and subtlety than any other cinema...

Hordes of uniformed "Free German Youth" youngsters were sent out to inspect every East German's rooftop television and F.M. aerial, tear down those that were pointed toward the stations of Wrest...
Soft Bed in Berlin. Instead, the broadcasts convinced Britain's government that Jeeves's erratic inventor had turned traitor. To repudiate Wodehouse, choleric William Connor-author of the Daily Mirror's Cassandra column-was drafted by the Minister of Information. In a virulent attack broadcast by the BBC, Connor castigated Wodehouse as "an old playboy" who had "fallen on his knees and worshipped Hitler." Roared Connor: "It is a somber story of self-respect, honor and decency being pawned to the Nazis for the price of a soft bed in a luxury hotel...
