Questions about Movies/World War II movie

Expert: William Sternman - 7/29/2005


Question
A movie I saw on late-night television in the 80s. Black and
white, World War II movie. An American soldier gets involved
with a girl from the French underground.  She's tough as nails.
But in one scene, as they give in to their attraction, she says
something like, "I want you to think of me as a girl in a white
dress that's never been kissed."

Nobody I've talked to can remember it.

Answer
Hi, Jeff!

I have a very vague feeling that the movie you're trying to locate starred Michèle Morgan, but I can't find the movie.

This site has a clickable list of Morgan's movies. Maybe one of the titles or plot summaries will ring a bell.

Good luck!
