“Berlin Correspondent,” Eugene Forde’s melodrama concerns an American war correspondent (played with authority by Dana Andrews), who tries to steal Axis military secrets in Berlin and rescue his informant from the Gestapo.
As penned by Steve Fisher and Jack Andrews, the story bears strong thematic resemblance to “Mister V,” a British picture starring Leslie Howard, though “Berlin Correspondent” is more effective in its satirical elements of the Nazis.
