Movie review

From Time Out Film Guide

RKO didn't waste much time in getting this Korean War drama on screen, and the documentary footage used to fill in the background is far more striking than anything the scriptwriters could come up with. Mitchum's strictly on autopilot as the US colonel charged with evacuating all American citizens from Korea, which means persuading comely UN official Blyth that she has to go too. The blend of action and romance never amounts to much.
