Just saw this on TCM's Memorial Day Weekend. Had never seen this movie set in the waning days of WW II. The movie bears a striking resemblance to Grand Hotel, which should be no surprise as it was written by Vicki Baum, who wrote Grand Hotel, a classic novel I read earlier this year. It turns out that Faye Emerson, who had a leading role in the movie, married one of FDR's sons.
