Factual errors: When Emil appears in his Nazi uniform, the shirt and pants are those of the Hitler Youth (which is appropriate for someone his age). However, the armband is not that of the Hitler Youth (alternating red and white bands with a swastika inside a white diamond), but that of a regular party member (solid red background with a swastika in a white circle). He would not have been eligible for full party membership - and the party armband - until his 18th birthday. moreFAQ

Other comments have been spot-on in their comparisons to "The Bad Seed" and even Dennis the Menace. I also totally agree that this is a decidedly unsubtle piece of war propaganda. Having said that, there is one reason I find the film still watchable. I first saw this movie in 1944 when I I was growing up in the Midwest. I found it utterly gripping then. Seeing it again, I can now see how well the excellent cast dealt with the lame plot.
But it set the standard for what became my favorite genre of movies, which I called "Nazi movies" - meaning Hollywood (and British) war films about Germany. Sometimes they were great films and still are, such as "The Lady Vanishes." And sometimes they were closer to being potboilers, like this one. Most are hard for me to decide about, like "This Mortal Storm" - so I just give up and enjoy them all!
