Details

Night Train to Munich (1940) is a British-American war) thriller directed by Carol Reed and starring Margaret Lockwood and Rex Harrison.

When German forces took over Czechoslovakia in 1939, Axel Bomasch (James Harcourt) was flown to Britain for his own protection. His daughter, Anna (Lockwood) is arrested and sent to a concentration camp. At the concentration camp, she meets a fellow prisoner, Karl Marsen (Paul (von) Henried who befriends her. The two escape from the concentration camp, but Marsen is really a Gestapo agent assigned to befriend Anna and find out where her father is.

Dickie Randall (Harrison), a British intelligence officer attempts to rescue Anna and her father from the Nazis. Will his efforts be successful or will Anna and her father be turned over to the Gestapo?
