I enjoyed this movie as it was based on a true story.
The only review I can give is this. A very brave Australian lady, whose exploits that are in her book, and now on screen are so very true. In the 1980's I was one of a few that had the great honour to have diner with the “White Mouse” at the Sergeants mess at RAAF Base Point Cook. A true lady in every aspect of the word. Please buy her book from Mighty Ape, as well as her DVD. I give you my word none of you will be disappointed. Graham West.
Apart from some rather stereotyped views of the French, this docu-drama left me feeling that it presented only a very incomplete view of what the White Mouse must have done during the war.
Nancy Wake: Gestapo's Most Wanted
Nancy Wake: Gestapo's Most Wanted World War 2 documentary drama film on DVD, directed by Mike Smith.
This is the incredible true story of Nancy Wake, the daring allied spy who became the Gestapo’s most wanted woman in WWII.
Codenamed ‘The White Mouse’ for her elusiveness, this international femme fatale was a key inspiration behind Sebastian Faulkes’ celebrated fictional spy Charlotte Gray. In this first ever docudrama biopic on Wake, gripping dramatisations are combined with exclusive interviews with her closest friends, confidants and military historians to bring her legend to life.
Born in New Zealand, Wake moved to Paris where she worked as a journalist reporting across Europe and married a French arisocrat, Henri Fiocca. When war broke out, she became a vital link in the French resistance, and hunted by Nazi spies, was forced to flee to London and leave her husband behind. She then embarked on a life of excitement and danger, returning to France as a British agent in Churchill’s secret army, the Special Operations Executive.
Nancy Wake became the Allies’ most decorated service-woman – awarded British, French, Australian and New Zealand honours as well as the American Medal of Freedom.
