Assigned Blog #12- WWII Movie.

I watched the movie 36 Hours. This movie is about a US major, Jefferson Pike, that gets captured by Germans. The Germans knock him out and when he wakes up they try to convince him that they are in the US and the US has won the war. When they have him convinced of this they slowly start trying to get him to reveal major US army strategies. The fake German doctor tells him that Hitler was arrested and executed to get him to tell them things.

The Germans tell him that he has a wife, he's her nurse. She is really a Jew that they took from a conservation camp. She was a nurse and spoke English. She goes along with this plan so she wont have to go back to the conservation camp. Her name was Anna. After he goes on a bike ride, he realizes something isn't right. When he gets back to the hospital he forces Anna to tell him the real date. Jack eventually lets them escape. Major Jefferson Pike goes back to the US and Anna is snuck back into London.


I thought it was a good movie. It showed me what some people in the war would do just to get some inside information.
