- Summary:
- Bon Voyage is a taut, absorbing drama of wartime espionage and murder, made in 1944 to aid the war effort. But when British government officials saw the film, directed by cinema genius Alfred Hitchcock, they labeled it "inflammatory", shelved it, and tried to forget it was ever made. A Scottish RAF air gunner, who has escaped from a POW camp in Germany and made it safely back to Britain, is being interrogated by a Free French Intelligence officer. As he explains how he was helped and guided by a Polish fellow-escapee, we watch (in flashback) the perilous last stages of his journey through France, passed from hand to hand by ambivalent strangers through a series of sinister rendezvous.
