    • Trivia
      After shooting, lead actress Sarah Megan Thomas's left Achilles tendon ruptured. The rupture occurred due to complications of playing Virginia Hall on screen (a historical character with a wooden left leg). Thomas needed surgery and extensive rehab to repair the tendon.
    • Goofs
      Virginia Hall refers to "CARE packages" during the war. CARE packages were not created until 1946 by the Cooperative for American Remittances to Europe (CARE). However, "Care Package" is a generic term for such packages, the most prolific of which were those distributed via the International Red Cross.
    • Quotes

      Virginia Hall: I've never seen so much hatred. The Germans control what the French read and hear.False information is everywhere. The latest, an anti-Semitic exhibition. There are lines down the block to see it.

    Good performance, well-told story
    I was a bit skeptical about Stana Katic being cast in a war film, but I have to say she does a great job in this movie. This is a strong female movie with good casting and very good acting. I personally enjoy historic films and I liked this one.
