One such is Dr. Ravic, who practices medicine illegally and stalks his old Nazi enemy Haake with murder in mind. One rainy night, Ravic meets Joan Madou, a kept woman cast adrift by her lover's sudden death. Against Ravic's better judgment, they become involved in a doomed affair.

Movie Dialogue Sample
00:47:29,080 --> 00:47:31,071
Yes, yes, I remember.
725
00:47:32,116 --> 00:47:34,744
Oh, Alvarez, this is Miss Madou.
726
00:47:37,455 --> 00:47:39,480
How is the leg now?
727
00:47:39,557 --> 00:47:41,081
I can bend it completely.
728
00:47:41,159 --> 00:47:43,059
It was good enough
to take me over the Pyrenees.
729
00:47:44,429 --> 00:47:47,022
- It's all right.
- It's all over now.
730
00:47:47,097 --> 00:47:49,588
Those of us who can are getting out.
731
00:47:49,666 --> 00:47:51,133
- You're lucky to be here.
- Yes.
732
00:47:51,201 --> 00:47:52,725
- Where are you staying?
- Here.
733
00:47:52,803 --> 00:47:55,738
Beds, Doctor. Real beds.
734
00:47:55,806 --> 00:47:59,242
It's a nice hotel.
Just got in this morning.
735
00:48:00,577 --> 00:48:01,874
How are things here?
736
00:48:01,945 --> 00:48:05,505
Oh, fine. The frontiers
are guarded by mere words.
737
00:48:05,581 --> 00:48:07,412
The enemy will never break through.
738
00:48:07,483 --> 00:48:09,212
- Same all over again.
- Maybe.
739
00:48:10,386 --> 00:48:11,717
Would you like a drink?
740
00:48:11,787 --> 00:48:14,915
Not now. There are things I have to do.
741
00:48:14,991 --> 00:48:17,357
But we'll meet again.
742
00:48:25,800 --> 00:48:27,859
You've hardly said a word
since we left the hotel.
743
00:48:27,936 --> 00:48:29,870
Is it because of that man?
744
00:48:34,442 --> 00:48:35,807
He called you Gunther.
745
00:48:35,877 --> 00:48:37,845
- Yes, I know.
- Why did he do that?
746
00:48:37,913 --> 00:48:39,141
Is your name Gunther?
747
00:48:39,214 --> 00:48:40,977
My name is Ravic.
748
00:48:41,049 --> 00:48:42,175
But he knew you.
749
00:48:42,249 --> 00:48:44,581
Joan, names are unimportant.
750
00:48:44,652 --> 00:48:47,348
Never bother yourself about names.
751
00:48:49,590 --> 00:48:50,887
What's the matter?
752
00:48:50,958 --> 00:48:54,792
Nothing. I'm happy.
I told you I'm in love.
753
00:48:56,730 --> 00:48:58,459
Have you been happy often?
754
00:48:59,900 --> 00:49:02,060
Have you?
755
00:49:02,135 --> 00:49:03,432
Not often.
756
00:49:03,503 --> 00:49:05,698
When was the last time?
757
00:49:05,772 --> 00:49:07,535
Why do you ask me?
758
00:49:07,607 --> 00:49:09,598
Oh, just to ask something.
759
00:49:11,277 --> 00:49:12,539
Two years ago.
760
00:49:15,415 --> 00:49:16,905
It didn't last long.
761
00:49:16,983 --> 00:49:18,848
Why not?
762
00:49:18,918 --> 00:49:20,078
He made terrible scenes.
763
00:49:20,153 --> 00:49:21,915
He didn't understand
I no longer loved him.
764
00:49:23,088 --> 00:49:25,613
One never understands that.
765
00:49:25,691 --> 00:49:29,127
You would understand.
But then I would always love you.
766
00:49:29,194 --> 00:49:32,095
You're different.
Everything with us is different.
767
00:49:32,164 --> 00:49:35,133
He wanted to kill me.
768
00:49:35,200 --> 00:49:37,031
They always talk about it,
but they never do.
769
00:49:40,338 --> 00:49:42,533
You wouldn't want to kill me.
770
00:49:43,975 --> 00:49:46,068
Your conversation
is becoming more human.
771
00:49:46,143 --> 00:49:47,906
For a moment,
I was pretty frightened.
772
00:49:47,979 --> 00:49:49,674
Because I love you?
773
00:49:50,781 --> 00:49:52,408
Oh, we won't start that again.
774
00:49:52,483 --> 00:49:55,350
We won't start what again?
775
00:49:55,419 --> 00:49:56,780
Has anyone you loved ever told you
776
00:49:56,821 --> 00:49:58,015
that he no longer loved you?
777
00:50:00,156 --> 00:50:01,555
Yes.
778
00:50:01,624 --> 00:50:03,114
What did you do?
779
00:50:03,193 --> 00:50:06,219
Everything, but it didn't help.
780
00:50:06,296 --> 00:50:09,129
- I was terribly unhappy.
- For long?
781
00:50:09,199 --> 00:50:11,690
A week. About a week.
782
00:50:11,768 --> 00:50:13,759
That's not very long.
783
00:50:13,837 --> 00:50:15,517
It's an eternity if you're really unhappy.
784
00:50:15,538 --> 00:50:18,938
I was so filled with unhappiness
that nothing else existed.
785
00:50:19,008 --> 00:50:21,738
And, if nothing else exists,
786
00:50:21,810 --> 00:50:23,869
there is nothing left
with which to compare it.
787
00:50:25,681 --> 00:50:28,616
All one can do is to start to live again.
788
00:50:31,820 --> 00:50:33,481
What are you thinking of?
789
00:50:33,555 --> 00:50:35,819
Of how dangerous you are, Joan.
790
00:50:35,891 --> 00:50:38,450
I'm not dangerous.
791
00:50:38,526 --> 00:50:41,256
The fact that you think that is part of it.
792
00:50:47,402 --> 00:50:49,393
- You must be tired.
- No, I'm not tired.
793
00:50:49,470 --> 00:50:51,370
- Been walking for miles.
- You didn't answer my question.
794
00:50:51,439 --> 00:50:53,202
What did you do in Spain?
795
00:50:53,274 --> 00:50:55,367
- Cut off legs.
- That's no answer.
796
00:50:55,443 --> 00:50:56,932
What kind of an answer do you want?
