After the opening scene, a firing squad execution, an unseen narrator announces that Decision Before Dawn will explain why a spy risks his life to betray his own country. The picture never quite does this, but in trying, Twentieth Century Fox has produced a semi-documentary melodrama that can be best described in superlatives...
