    • Goofs
      The movie opens with a radio broadcast by Bill Robertson from Berlin, Germany, in which he states that for 26 days Berlin has not been bombed. Just then, a bombing of Berlin begins. The movie then has footage of Stuka dive bombers bombing a city. But Stukas were a German airplane. So, the movie has the Germans inadvertently bombing Berlin themselves.

    A rather slight wartime propaganda film.
    "Berlin Correspondent" is set just before the United States entered World War II. Bill Roberts (Dana Andrews) is an American news correspondent and it's pretty obvious he hates Nazi Germany, which is where he's been stationed. The Nazis heavily censor his news broadcasts...yet somehow information about the Nazis seems to sneak out...and they suspect Bill is up to something. Eventually they learn his secret but instead of just being tossed out of the country, the Nazis have other plans for him.

    Despite having Dana Andrews in the picture, this is a pretty unremarkable film. The Nazis are almost all stupid as well as evil...and Bill is able to trick them again and again because of this. If only the Nazis were this dumb! Overall, a decent time- passer but not much more. And, by the way, oddly the Germans almost all sound just like Americans!
