What a wonderful movie. It captures the blooming relationship between a stuffy military man on the run and a free spirited gypsy totally. Milland is on a mission with a young man to get a formula for a deadly gas from a man in Germany. Along the way they split up, and plan to meet again at a road crossing. In the mean time Milland is running and hiding from the Nazi's when he comes across Dietrich. She makes him up as a gypsy to hide his identity, and they go on their way to his destination. Even though Dietrich is dirty and messy, he becomes closer to her as he sees that she is a unique and wonderful woman. There are many lighthearted moments where Milland tells her to sit on her hands as she is constantly trying to seduce him. The pairing of these two stars is nothing short of magnificent. Milland is absolutely gorgeous and it is not a wonder that Dietrich is having a hard time keeping her hands off him. The war ends and he returns to her to be with her forever.
