On the Double

Ernie Williams, an American GI (Danny Kaye), is admittedly weak-kneed and bears a striking resemblance with British Colonel MacKenzie. (Danny Kaye). Williams is also an expert at disguise and imitation, so he is requested to pretend to be the Colonel in order to facilitate the Colonel’s secret trip to East. Williams does not know that the Colonel was recently assassinated. The plan is changed after the Colonel’s aircraft crashes. Williams continues to use the mask to mislead the Nazis regarding D-Day. –Jerry Milani
