Ninotchka in the air, stuffed with Hughes cold war pretentions not asimilated by Von Sternberg in his last sad film. Wayne is pure routine, Leigh is nice but too american, a real miscast in a role for a exotic beauty as Lamarr or Gardner.

Air Force Colonel Shannon is assigned to escort defecting Soviet pilot Anna. He falls in love with her, but she is scheming to lure him back to the USSR. But Shannon has a scheme of his own.
