Product Description

Spies of Warsaw (2012)(DVD)

David Tennant (Doctor Who) and Janet Montgomery (Entourage) star in this adaptation of Alan Furst's celebrated spy novel set in Poland, Paris and Berlin in the years leading up to the Second World War. At the french embassy in Warsaw, the new military attaché, Colonel Jean-Francois Mercier (Tennant), is drawn into a world of abduction, betrayal and intrigue in the diplomatic salons and back alleys of the city. At the same time, the handsome aristocrat is involved in a passionate love affair with a Parisian woman of Polish heritage (Montgomery), a lawyer for the League of Nations. Risking his life, Mercier works in the shadows amid a remarkable cast of characters, some known to him as spies, some never to be revealed. It is a city where people drink and fight and spy and love, because no one knows what tomorrow will bring.

    If you're expecting BANG POW EXPLODEY 007 then go watch a James Bond movie. Bond is great for what it is, and I love a good Bond film. This isn't that kind of spy story and if you are looking for that with this film you're barking up the wrong tree. This is plot and character driven, bittersweet, gritty and realistic. Beautifully photographed on location, this is what life was like in that era for people in the world of covert ops. Intriguing and romantic, it holds true to canon. "But the book was better" you say? Well, isn't that always the case?

    David Tennant never disappoints. Leave Doctor Who out of this, it's nowhere near it, nor is his character. Mr. Tennant has shown yet again his range and depth - his acting is quite liquid and one can see so much going on behind his eyes it's almost like reading his thoughts.

    It was brilliantly cast and directed, taut in tone with wonderful dialog and pace. The score only adds to the dark mood and was wonderfully written and executed. The costumes were well-researched and replicated. So much love has gone into the little details of this film and it shows. This is what quality television looks like. As stated, this isn't James Bond. James Bond is, at the end of the day, as much fantasy as action story. This isn't that. It is, at the end of the day, about human nature, just as all the best stories are.

    Without spoiling, I'll say the ending was a bittersweet definition of the word verisimilitude. Spies of Warsaw is a spy story for the thinking person.

    I finally had an evening to devote to watching Spies of Warsaw (via imported discs from the UK). I found it very absorbing -- exciting, romantic, and tragic.

    I know a bit about WW2 history but I'm not familiar with the novel the film is based on. I had recently read Prague Winter by Madeleine Albright, and I knew people with numbers on their arms from the old days, so I knew something of the era and events.

    As a suspense piece I really enjoyed this movie. I had no idea what would happen next to the individual characters and I was completely drawn into following their various fates. As a period piece, it felt authentic in terms of clothing and attitudes. As a romance, it's credible and moving. The only problem I see with it as a drama is that there are a large number of characters and it's a bit difficult to sort them all out at first, but once the story gets moving, it all comes together. It's not some crummy superhero action movie, so people looking for CGI stunts and spandex may not care for it, but I would recommend it to anybody who likes romance, historical war stories and serious adult drama.

    The period between WWI and WWII has been explored countless times in movies in just about every genre from musicals to "The Grapes of Wrath."
    Seldom, however, has there been an effort to explore the darker side of international intrigue during those two decades. This is not to say there haven't been spy movies that focus on that period but many of them were over-the-top melodrama and those that weren't were often thinly disguised propaganda films.
    "Spies of Warsaw" is neither. It is too stylish to be considered gritty but it admirably conveys the shadowy world of spy vs. spy at a period in the world's history when most of the populations of Europe and the Americas preferred not to think of the growing threat of fascism. Horrified by the industrial-strength slaughter of World War I, the majority of people on both continents wanted nothing more than "peace in our time" and were willing to sacrifice just about anything - including the sovereignty of small nations - to have it.
    There were some, however, who read the tea leaves and worked diligently to prepare their countries for what they were certain would be a war that would be even more horrific than WWI. "Spies of Warsaw" tells the story of French intelligence officer Colonel Jean-François Mercier, a hero of both the First World War and the all-but-ignored attempt by the fledgling Soviet Union to annex Poland. Mercier, a cavalry officer, fought with the Poles to beat back the Soviets and winds up being posted to Warsaw as a military attache. His real job, however, is to run the French embassy's intelligence network; a task he undertakes with ruthless efficiency. It is in the role that he meets the beautiful lawyer Anna Skarbek.
    David Tennant as Mercier and Janet Montgomery as Skarbek were nicely paired in this BBC mini-series. Tennant brought a degree of frustration and anxiety to his role of a spy that very few people listen to and Montgomery played Skarbek with what I thought was nice blend of coolness and courage. The supporting cast - especially Marcin Dorocinski as Polish Colonel Antoni Pakulski - did excellent work. The cinematography was well done - though some critics thought it "washed out" - and the costuming was excellent.
    The series suffered, however, from what I thought was a rushed resumption of the relationship between Mercier and Skarbek. Early in the series she is living with a Russian journalist who has escaped from the Soviet Union and now writes articles condemning the communists. Mercier meets her on a blind date to a diplomatic function and is captivated by her. They have an affair and at some point he tells her that she must break it off with the Russian. Mercier leaves Poland for Paris and when he returns he learns that the French ambassador in Warsaw has arranged to have the Russian deported to the USSR and an almost certain death. Anna breaks off her affair with Mercier as a result. A year later Mercier sees the Russian at a conference, learning then that he was not an anti-communist journalist but a Soviet spy. He sends word to Anna that her former lover is alive and in a dramatic scene Mercier and Skarbek reunite on the eve of the German invasion of Poland. As a viewer, I needed at least 10 more minutes of film to show how Anna took the news, how she processed it, and then came to her decision to reunite with Mercier.
    That criticism aside, I found this to be a well done production and well worth watching not just once but again and again.

    Fortunately I had not read the book on which this was based, so I could enjoy the production just for itself. It's certainly dark and tense, but it's also wonderfully romantic and heroic and beautiful--with a satisfying ending, which I personally need for closure! The cast is very good--who cares if the actors aren't actually French or Polish or German? It's the storytelling that matters, and that's well done. Frankly, it's easier to understand the dialogue without heavy accents getting in the way. The character which David Tennant portrays has been said, by other reviewers, to seem emotionally restrained. But I never had that sense at all. He was a man totally focused, completely absorbed by his work, which needed a clear, cool head because of the danger he was putting himself in. When he did show his emotions, it was because he was deeply moved. David Tennant is certainly a very skilled actor and it is always a pleasure to watch him interpret whatever role he takes on. I'm so glad I ignored the negative reviews and enjoyed this splendid production!

    It is a fictional story based on some historical facts. Historical facts are that Polish gold (about 75 tons) was evacuated to Romania and later to France. Initially gold was stored transported into a small town of Sniatynia (close to border with Romania. In Swiatynia a cargo train was loaded and sent to Romanian port Constanta, where it was loaded on a small ship 'Eocene'. Ship delivered gold to Turkey, Istanbul. After that gold was sent to Toulon, France. When France capitulated, gold was evacuated to Africa, Dakar (French colony). After battle in American court, French government released gold to polish (on exile government) and gold was split into 3 parts and sent to New York, Ottawa and London. The other plot of the movie is spies activity in pre-war Warsaw. For sure it was such activity, but not necessary the same as it was shown in the movie. The interesting historical fact was that a polish agent Krystyna Skarbek (same last name as the character from the movie: Anna Skarbek) was working for the British Special Operations Executive (SOE) during the Second World War and she was described as a favourite agent of Winston Churchill. Anyway, it was an interesting movie showing reality of life in pre-war Europe.

    A gripping spy action film leading to the build up of the German war machine before WW2. The film exposes the denial of Germany's intentions by Europe as a result of WW1's devastation and resulting financial hardships. No one wants to believe another war is about to happen on the heels of the last one even though through espionage the truth is revealed.
