Lively characters, romance, jazz and thrills
It is set in 1946, when America, Russia and Britain were all trying to get hold of German scientists and engineers, to work on rockets and jet engines. With the backdrop of war crimes investigated with wanted the guilty to be returned to Germany to go on trial for war crimes.
Our hero is a Captain in the army who is to be demobbed shortly, he is tasked with looking after a German engineer and is to persuade him to work for the British. Most of the scenes are set in a hotel that is due for demolition, but one side of the building remains intact, and that's where they live. In the basement there's a small jazz band with a forthright lead singer an African American woman with a tuneful jazz voice.
The Captain's brother has been left with mental issues after fighting and is helped by the Captain when he gets into scrapes.
There is intrigue, romance and jazz music, along with some colourful fashions of the day, as the last of the very rich live in style with scantily food rations from the kitchen of the hotel.

Perfect for meditation or prayers, (best used with curtains pulled or in the evening.
It is perfect for use as a prop for meditation or prayers, however the flames do not show up in bright daylight, it's is best used in the evening, The candles are rather plain and I have decorated mine with ribbon.

Fast moving with plenty of action
I never tire of seeing Mel Gibson and Danny Glover and their relationship growing throughout the films, plenty of action, tongue in cheek humour and emotionally charged. A little dated but nevertheless. a great compilation
