In French with English subtitles. Widescreen. Also known as Babette s'en va-t-en Guerre.
Directed by Christian-Jaque. France'sBrigitte Bardot was at the height of her fame when she starred in this engagingly silly military comedy. Babette (Bardot) is a beautiful but unfortunately clueless young French woman who, in 1940, becomes a refugee when she seeks safe haven in England as the Germans move in to occupy her land. Babette is recruited as part of a scheme to help British military intelligence foil a German plot to invade England. The idea is for Babette to use her good looks to win the confidence of German officers and learn their secrets; however, despite her enthusiasm, Babette's striking ineptitude when it comes to military espionage makes her as much of a threat as an asset to Allied forces.
Finally nice to find a copy of this elusive Bardot film with English subtitles. The film itself is a pleasant experience, typical of it's day, and ultimately a welcome addition to the Bardot collection.
