Rating: 3/5 --
If you will accept this premise, despite the evidence of recent deeds, then you should be both moved and shaken by the better part of this film.

Tracy is superb, while Zinnemann delivers a powerful piece of work that accurately captures the sense of time and place.

Variety
Rating: C+ --
Spencer Tracy, usually solid, is miscast as a German who escapes from concentration camp, but then the whole saga is fake, compared to Zinnemann's later works.

Spencer Tracy's sincere performance in this intense drama about the current war is deeply moving. [Full review in Spanish]

Cine-Mundial
With Tracy heading the cast and a host of great character actors in support, it's hardly surprising that the performances are the most memorable aspect of Zinnemann's first major feature.

Description by OLDIES.com:
Somewhere in Nazi Germany there is a concentration camp. And in that camp, there are seven crosses, one for each of the men who dared to escape. One by one, the Gestapo hunts the seven down, and returns them to the crosses. And death. Until there is but one cross left. And one man left trying to escape it.
Fred Zinnemann (High Noon) directs Spencer Tracy at the head of a terrifically talented ensemble that includes such notables as Hume Cronyn and Jessica Tandy (their first appearance together), Ray Collins, Signe Hasso and Agnes Moorehead.
