The Mortal Storm (1940)


This is a film that came out in 1940 and stars Jimmy Stewart and Margaret Sullivan.

It's a movie that I always remember as being one that stands out from many other films of 1940 because it talks about the politics in Germany at the time.

The film shows how a family breaks apart due to their political differences and affiliations.

Robert Stack co-stars as a relative who turns to the Nazi party, to the dismay of his relatives who align with the resistance. Frank Morgan plays a professor and the patriarch of the family.

Jacqueline of Another Old Movie Blog wrote a very good blog entry on this movie here.
