In Poland right before the war, English decorator Mrs. Bromley has come to buy antiques with her assistant Jennifer Whittredge (Ida Lupino). Count Stefan Orwid (Paul Henreid) mistakes Jenny for the salesgirl. They are taken with each other. His conservative uncle is one of the country's richest aristocrat and the source of the family's wealth. Stefan is the supposed heir and proposes to Jenny as war threatens Poland.
This has a good meet cute. The couple has good chemistry. The relationship is good. The other part is being progressive and democratic in opposition to the forces of conservatism. They end by battling the forces of Nazi Germany in a propaganda wartime film. All of it is fine and fits well with the war effort. I do have an issue with burning the crops. I get the premise to fight the war but it's badly conceived.
