A gripping postwar film noir journey through the shadows of divided Europe. Berlin Express (1948) blends espionage, mystery, and moral ambiguity in the true noir tradition — exploring a world of broken alliances and hidden motives.

Directed by Jacques Tourneur (Out of the Past, Cat People), this classic noir thriller follows a tense train journey from Paris to Frankfurt where an international group of passengers is drawn into a web of intrigue after a diplomat is kidnapped. Starring Robert Ryan, Merle Oberon, and Paul Lukas, the film captures the uneasy atmosphere of postwar Germany through stunning on-location cinematography — a rare authenticity for its time.
