The Devil's General

[BE THE FIRST TO RATE THIS MOVIE]
Calorie Rating: 164
Released: 1955-02-23
MPAA Rating: NR
Running Time: 117 Minutes
Studios: Real-Film,


Curt Jurgens stars as a courageous Luftwaffe officer. Jurgens loves the service, even though he barely tolerates the Hitler regime. Sickened by wartime Nazi atrocities, Jurgens renounces his government, and is imprisoned and tortured as a result. Once released, the general takes pity on a downtrodden Jewish family. This isolated act of kindness is a point in his favor when Jurgens stands before Satan himself for his final judgment. The Devil's General was based on an immensely successful postwar play by German author Carl Zuckmeyer.
