it looks like a sequel
10 March 2011
Warning: Spoilers
Be ware the enemy is listening looks like a sequel to the golden spider. The three same stars Kirsten Hieberg, Rolf Christmas, the name Thiel translates literally to Christmas, and Joseph Sieber . Added to the list is Rene Deltgen and in a smaller role an actor who would play his competitor to a girl name Inge, one of the rugby players in the Big game, 1942, as one of the designers,Once again we have another factory working against us and Russia. This takes place before the war starts Kirsten is a spy for the french and English and operates a fashion shop. Rene is an English spy - I think and manages to work in this Nazi factory. He seduces one of the workers to get secrets ,Lotti Koch, isn't that a Jewish name?but he works with Kirsten since they are partners.Now don't forget who side your on. Once again I was rooting for the spies.Kirsten meets x mas at her fashion show in the restaurant. Starts to find out about the secrets in the factory. Once again you have a luncheon room sequence with symphony music as the back ground Muzak rather than music , of let's say, Kurt Widman. Erich Pronto plays a french spy. One of the managers who wears glasses is also a spy already working in the factory.Kirsten get's one of the secrets from the telephone copying the message on top of a hat box. Joseph Sieber plays a nitty gritty character again.Elsa Wagner well known character actress, who played the aunt in Gasparone, plays Lottie's mother.There are two scenes which all of a sudden every one is speaking almost good English with German subtitles.When an English spy with some British female companion visits Kirstens store.When the same English spy visits Rene at a country club then Rene is speaking good English too. He could have done some American films after the war.Eventually Rene gets Lotti in trouble and it affects her career and she is accused of something she didn't do.Chrisamas gets in trouble too and finds out about Kirsten at her shop but one of the workers were a spy for Germany and got the gestapo in the nick of time, But Rene takes of in a air plane . But is destroyed by powerful steal ropes holding up by dirigibles. What a sad ending as sad as the ending in mortal storm.Highly entertaining . Public domain print available at Reichs Kino and War film .com. It need to be remastered.
