Night Ambush (1957) Synopsis

This sneaky, low-key adventure is the true story (based on the 1950 'Ill Met By Moonlight' memoir by W. Stanley Moss) of how a handful of British agents infiltrated Nazi-occupied Crete in 1944 and with the help of crowds of Cretan Resistance fighters kidnapped one General Kreipe, spiriting him across the island and, via Allied ships, to Egypt.
