Hanover Street (1979)

Peter Hyams directs Harrison Ford, Lesley-Anne Down and Christopher Plummer in this WW2 love triangle. 

Young(ish), cusp of super stardom, Harrison Ford romance actioner filmed through a Vaseline coated lens. Fluff that wants to be Casablanca, then Catch-22, then The Great Escape. The first and last strands have their tender and their thrilling moments. Lesley-Anne Down matches the big name in period dress up sexiness. Ford points his finger when talking. How else do you want to kill an afternoon?
