01 / THE STORY

A little about the film.

In mid-August 1939, just before the outbreak of World War II, the editor of the ''New York Globe'', Mr. Powers (Harry Davenport (actor)), is concerned about the crisis in Europe, the growing power of Adolf Hitler and Nazi Germany, and the inability of celebrated foreign correspondents to get answers about whether war will ensue. After searching for a good, tough crime reporter for a fresh viewpoint, he appoints John Jones (Joel McCrea) as a foreign correspondent, under the pen name Huntley Haverstock.
