The Man Who Never Was

The most fiendish plot ever conceived! The most amazing "human being" ever created! The most diabolical phantom--

103 mins
The true story of a British effort to trick the Germans into weakening Sicily's defenses before the 1943 attack. A dead soldier is dressed as a British officer and outfitted with faked papers showing that the Allies were intending to invade occupied Greece. His body is put into the sea where it will ultimately drift ashore and the papers be passed along to German Intelligence.
